Playwright Mark Dunn presents four audio plays about Southern women: Dix Tableaux, Van Choc Straw, PIGmalion, and Deep in the Heart.

Deep in the Heart, adapted from the award-winning comedy-drama The Deer and the Antelope Play, tells the story of an East Texas family - a mother, daughter, and grandmother - who face tragedy and assorted misfortunes head-on with the help of the strange young woman, believed to be a former prostitute, who comes to live with them.

Althea Witlin has a 5,000-piece jigsaw puzzle among her large collection that she's never worked on. She has less than a day to finish it because poor health has forced her to move in with her sister, without her puzzles. Van Choc Straw is a bittersweet comedy about tenuous family ties and the often stronger bonds of friendship that lattice the final years of our lives.
