“Taxi!” Imagine hailing a cab only to find your life suddenly taking a U-turn! A young man and woman, Chris and Samantha, meet under seemingly coincidental circumstances when they reluctantly agree to share a taxi. But is anything really just coincidence?
Your audience will be taken along for a ride, literally and figuratively! As the two perfect strangers get to know one another, they are maneuvered along by their boisterous, wise-cracking taxi driver. Will they let their chance for love get away or will they embrace it? The pair realizes they have more in common than they ever could have imagined, so they have to wonder if their meeting was serendipity... or fate.
A winner in two different playwriting contests, this playful, fast-paced one-act is sharply written and loaded with fun dialogue.
Winner of the Shubert Fendrich Memorial Playwriting Contest
