Tiln & Other Plays
By Michael Cook

Three short plays by Michael Cook: Tiln, Quiller and Therese’s Creed.

In Tiln, two old men are caught in a personal power struggle. Using a lighthouse setting, Cook explores the modern man's dilemma in an uncaring world.

Cast of 2 men

In contrast, Quiller is a one-person play set in a Newfoundland outport. In this play, Cook creates a portrait of an old man assessing his empty life.

Cast of 1 man

Therese's Creed is similar to Quiller in that Cook again returns to the one-person format in an outport setting, but here he explores the female role.

Cast of 1 woman
