THE FIVE PLAYS

CASE OF THE MONDAYS
– written & directed by Salvador Esparza

It happens to all of us. The alarm goes off on a Monday morning, and the dread settles in. A poor night’s sleep after the Sunday Scaries is just the pebble that starts the avalanche into what’s sure to be another awful week. And yet, in a nondescript somewhere, a nosy landlord whispers to the police – “We had no idea. He’d greet everyone in the morning on his way to his stable job. He paid his bills and had plenty of friends. How could this happen?”

Cast:
Man – Salvador Esparza
