CJD: A multimedia one man show written and performed by a neurologist about his experience with a patient with CJD, augmented with live music performance.
Impostors: After a brain injury, a son believes his parents have been replaced with exact duplicates of themselves, triggering a series of events that threatens to unravel the entire family. Based on a rare neurological condition called Capgras' Syndrome, Impostors is a quirky, funny, heartfelt exploration of the contradictions and distortions that hold all families together. Impostors won the Kennedy Center-ACTF playwriting contest for the Mid-Atlantic region, and was also a finalist for the Abingdon Theatre's Wolk Award and the Princess Grace Award.
NEUROshorts: A collection of short plays including The Boy Who Wanted to Be a Robot, Doctors Jane and Alexander, The Taste of Blue and Vestibular.
Strangers and Linguish: Linguish posits a disease which causes aphasia, the neurological disorder that takes away one's ability to use language. Four relative strangers are among the first to be affected, and are thrown together in quarantine. As the disease affects them, they are forced to try to find new ways to communicate. In Strangers a man and a woman are in what seems to be a waiting room. Is it a doctor's waiting room? If so, what's wrong?
Syndrome: A play about a man sitting in his room attempting to muster the courage to meet his parents for dinner. We quickly discover that there are reasons for his anxiety, stemming from his submission to Syndrome, a "spectrum of psychological disorders" that have taken over his mind via the following code words: Tourette's, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Paranoia, and Delusion. Of course, this man is perfectly normal, but he has a job to do. He must conquer Syndrome. And the only way to do that is by fully engaging, and then defusing, his manic-depressive array of memories, obsessions, and tics.
Tabula Rasa: An opera/theater work of three interlocking stories about children lost in the woods: Victor, a.k.a., The Wild Boy of Aveyron, a feral child found in France in 1800 after having spent his formative years in the wild and now lost in a forest of 'civilization'; Emily, a contemporary girl with Autism lost in a forest of antidepressants; and Hansel and Gretel of storybook fame, literally abandoned in the forest. Tabula Rasa examines the effects of nature and nurture, and the fundamental meaning of language and human relationships.
Welcome to Tourettaville!: A musical inspired by a young boy's dreamworld where 4 aliens, Tick, Blinky, Screamer, and the guru of all Tourettians, The Big Bleeper, befriend and inspire him toward self-acceptance. The musical was co-written by June Rachelson-Ospa and her 7 year old son Jonny Ospa.
Cincinatti: A one-woman show starring Nancy Walsh, a portrait of madness--originally performed after the removal of a brain tumor from Nancy Walsh, allowing her to only say things she had already memorized.
