The Spring Playwrights' Festival is pleased to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Pilgrim Memorial Monument.

Cleaning the Corners-Jeannette Angell
At the funeral of their mother, a brother confronts his sister on her unquestioning quasi-servitude to the woman. Later, he and his partner encourage her to let go of the myriad strings that tied her to the old lady and take the reins of her own life.

Touchstone-Doug Asher-Best
The lives of two men are compromised by illness as they await the first annual lighting of The Monument. The uncertainty of their own futures brings to mind the harsh realities faced by the Pilgrims in their first year.

Snakebite-Max Bron
An up-and-coming stock market analyst and drug addict is about to find out an important lesson: The pecking order isn't always what it seems.

Birdy at the Lily-Jody O'Neil
One May in Provincetown, a local lesbian sage encounters the wife of a Boston professor on a private beach in the East End of town. By fall, the gloves… and so much more... are off!

Almost There-Candace Perry
Harold is climbing the Monument as a weight loss regimen. His partner Simon wants to know why.

The Revenant-Jennifer Sirrico
On a beautiful night Libby waits for a phone call from her fiance. Her grandfather's ghost arrives, uninvited, and suggests she is engaged to the wrong man.

Passing the Torch-Jerry Thompson
In 1907, before the laying of the cornerstone of the Pilgrim monument, little Lucelia listens to a boring speech by Teddy Roosevelt. Seventy-eight years later as a grandmother, she attempts to climb the monument one last time.
