Lying Fallow & Permanent Things
These two plays by Joe Doran offer powerful, unsettling theatre experiences.
LYING FALLOW tells the tale of Jack Willow, a violent felon trying to work a farm with his pregnant wife in the spring of 1975. When Jack’s unbalanced cousin shows up, things quickly spin out of control...
Doran has constructed eerily familiar characters and sent them careening to an almost inexplicable climax. Is it just a perverse joyride, or a surprisingly sober meditation on an entire theatrical form?
PERMANENT THINGS
When the daughter of a movie icon goes backstage to meet an actor, a promising script by a blackballed playwright acts as the catalyst in a test of wills. Doran raises a series of questions about the motivations of artists and the limits of their creations…
Joe Doran’s plays have been performed by theatre groups around the world. His works have aired on Western Public Radio, and have been featured at the TheatreBC Festival in Canada.

The Specter Radio Plays
A throw-back to golden age radio, but oh-so politically incorrect, Joe Doran’s The Specter has won fans wherever it plays. Get ready for chills and laughs as Jack Tollman and company hold the line on evil, and try even harder to avoid being on the wrong end of a riposte...
Originally produced by High Window Radio Theatre, The Specter radio plays have been performed by theatre groups across the US. The show has aired via Western Public Radio, and was featured at the TheatreBC Mainstage 2005 Festival in Nanaimo, Canada.
