The Framer

The Framer $13

Edward Allan Baker

Published by Dramatists Play Service

4 Male 2 Female

A picture frame shop in a southern New England town is the setting for this tragi-comedy in which a dying man toils ceaselessly in order to leave his once-abused wife some postmortem financial security

He unwittingly experiences the emotional and physical brutality of his past, motivating him to sincerely atone for his sins

But his plan to repent is sidetracked by a request from his high-strung loser brother-in-law

"Baker deals with mortality and tragic influences by creating characters that are brutally honest, fascinatingly quirky, and jaded enough to find humor in almost anything" ~ ELJNYC.com

"There is an exuberant creativity in Edward Allan Baker's The Framer ... makes the dysfunctional family in August - Osage County look pretty tame by comparison" -TheaterMania
