'WHY GO ALL THE WAY TO FULTON, LOUISIANA?'is a collection of short plays by Dr. David J. Holcombe, MD. Most are ten-minute plays, but several are considerably longer and more complex. The subjects range from medical ('Ebolamania' and 'Sex Ed and the Superintendent') to political ('Removing the Equestrian Statue' and 'Painting the Ghetto.') The plays all have limited cast and set requirements, thus making them ideal for ten-minute or one-act play presentations by professionals or students. One of these plays has made its stage debut in Alexandria, Louisiana by Spectral Sisters Productions ('Ted’s Head'), but the others await their world premieres by those with a bit of courage and considerable vision. While written plays have limited public appeal, these works truly come alive on the stage. Share in the fun and the drama with these undiscovered gems from a most unlikely source, someone sometimes referred to locally as the 'Chekhov on the Bayou.'
