Now available to theater companies is my new Southern play

I AM THE GUMBO by Raleigh Marcell

Contemporary Comedy 2M, 2F (middle-age & up)

one-act in 2 scenes set on a front porch in South Louisiana running about 45-50 minutes

PDF file of the first scene available here:

Cajuns, cancer, California, St. Anthony of Padua, an invisible Cajun Band, a 150 year-old live oak tree and, of course, gumbo. And not just any gumbo but one potent enough to lure a lapsed Cajun down from his self-imposed exile up in an ancient live oak tree.

Ethnically specific but universal in theme about what it means to be what you are.

Many thanks!
