The Recovery:
A post operative patient finds it impossible to lie quietly and rest because of unnerving intruders, each of whom has urgent business with him. And the phone keeps ringing. Four female roles-- an almost blind nurse, a sexy young nurse, the patient's wife and the hospital companion-- are played by one actress and one actor also plays four roles: a doctor with a disturbing bedside manner, a prim bureaucrat who's lost the patient's deposit, a youthful orderly and an aged patient who's been hospitalized for longer than he can recall.

Position Available:
A classified ad for a personal secretary to novelist B.Wright draws Mel Shovanik and Grace Femino to the writer's door, where they are greeted by Bertram, the butler. Mel thinks Grace is the maid and she thinks he is the novelist. They discover that they are both after the job and competitiveness develops. Then they realize that Bertram is not a butler. In fact, he is not even Bertram. And Mel is not Mel. Nor is Grace Grace. Who are they? And who is B. Wright? After the mystery unravels, there is still a position available.

 

I'm personally leaning toward the first one, but I'm not sure what my female co-star would think. I was just wondering if anyone here has seen or done either of these one-acts...running times?
