Two short plays on one night! Mary's Wedding is a soaring love story that examines the enduring, painful cost of war. Mary meets Charlie in a barn during a thunderstorm and love is born. It is 1914, and they are separated by World War I in this dreamlike and tender story of innocent first love and the vicissitudes of fate.  The Dock Brief is a dark comedy depicting an unsuccessful aging barrister asked to represent a wife murderer. He hopes that a not guilty verdict will bring him the fame that has always eluded him and constructs a masterly defense. With its ingenious ending the play touches that rare dramatic level at which comedy and tragedy are indistinguishable. A real life barrister, playwrght Mortimer is best known around the world for his creation of the British television series Rumpole of the Bailey.
