"Irrational Dreams" - a comedy soap opera
"Irrational Dreams" is one of the few comedic soap operas available in print. This play, concerning the movie industry in Los Angeles, was produced in an off-off-Broadway workshop by the Rising Sun Performance Company in New York City in 2004. The play's thirty-three scenes use the plot devices of the 'traditional' soap - blackmail, adultery, turbulent careers, budding romance, etc. - only with a satirical-humorous tone, as opposed to the melodrama of the TV soap opera. Note that this is a reading edition of "Irrational Dreams" - a theatrical version (for professional use) is also available on lulu.com (# 183850).

"Irrational Dreams" - a comedy soap opera
If you can imagine "All My Children" crossed with "Saturday Night Live", you will have an idea of how this play works. "Irrational Dreams" contains many plot elements of the 'traditional' soap opera - adultery, blackmail, budding romances, turbulent careers, etc. - only for comedic effect, rather than the melodrama of the TV soap. The setting is modern-day Los Angeles, and many of the central characters work in the movie industry. NOTE: this is an acting edition; a reading edition will be made available on or around Christmas 2005.
