Can he finally draw the line?

When a divorcing couple come back together to reflect on ‘nine years of pretty much Hell’; and try to divide up their assets, in The Great War, what do each of them really want as they go into their final battle, and what socially unacceptable truth awaits admission?

A married older woman faces a terrible choice in Over the River and Through the Woods when a teenage girl in her family comes to her with a claim she was abused as achild by the older woman’s husband. Can she be trusted to do what is ‘right’?

When an attractive single girl offers an engaged man at a bar a no-strings attached one-night stand that will be their little secret, in A Guy Walks into a Bar, it seems too good to be true - and maybe it is! Are things as they seem or is he walking into a trap?
