A Bainbridge Island writing group came up with a creative idea on how to stay productive during the Covid shutdown. The five writers would each write a variation on a theme using a single park bench as their only prop and location. An outdoor setting with only a few characters would enable a safe, socially distanced way to create a performance. Since there would be no live audience, it would be filmed. The tiny, yet mighty team took on the 'not so small' task of writing, filming, recording, editing and animating the short film of five linked stories.

The five plays and writers are Jason Erickson (Congratulations on Your New Bench), Joseph
Steck (IRL Sal), Maria Beatty (Dog Gone It), Kitt Laws (So Close), and Jeffrey M. Brown (Rob
and Bob). Video and production was done by Joseph Steck and Jason Erickson. Directed by
Wilson Milam, Steve Stolee, Jeffrey Brown and Kitt Laws.

Actors: Kassie Thornton, Rose Weaver,, Karen Hauser, ReneĢe Messinger, Helen Heaslip, Jason Erickson, Frances Killian, Kris Jones, Evan Lenz, Ali Budge, and Ian Mitchell
