| Sure Thing, Words, Words, Words, and The Universal Language by David Ives is produced by special arrangement with Dramatist Play Service, Inc. Synopses from DPS. |
An Evening with David Ives contains three of Mr. Ives funniest one act plays.
Sure Thing, in which two people meet in a cafe and find their way through a conversational minefield as a bell interrupts their false
starts, gaffes, and faux pas on the way to falling in love.
Words, Words, Words, puts the philosophical adage that three monkeys typing into infinity will sooner or later produce Hamlet to
the test, and asks: What would monkeys talk about at their typewriters?
In The Universal Language, Dawn, a young woman with a stutter meets Don, the creator and teacher of Unamunda, a wild comic
language. Their lesson sends them off into a dazzling display of hysterical verbal pyrotechnics—and, of course, true love.
