A story about Michigan snowbirds and a saguaro cactus poacher learning the consequences of illegally transplanting sacred Sonoran flora for yard trophies.

This play is dedicated to Jack & Frances Strait, grandparents of the playwright who inspired the characters of Sylvia and Noyce. The play was written to provide an answer to Grandpa Jack’s question, “What do you have to write about?” in 1993, when Angeline told him she was switching majors from Journalism to English/Creative Writing. The play is a comedy, with elements borrowed from Shakespeare and Noises Off, and an organist at the Cow Palace south of Tucson mixed in — all in honor of Fran and Jack favorites from the theatre. The Straits laughed throughout the entire play. For the record, Frances was a staunch defender of preserving the saguaros of Tucson. Jack - with pride - took credit for provoking the creation of FISH IN THE DESERT. Their first great-grandchild Jack was born midway through the writing of the script.

a one-act play about the memories that carry us on to the next life

LIFE WITHOUT RUE was most recently performed by the Clay County High School Theatre Department.
Clay County advanced to the SETC Nationals Competition in Baltimore, MD in March 2025. Knowing that the playwright was in the house, they performed the script in full, causing them to go over the time limit a few minutes, sacrificing their eligibility to place in the competition. It was the most beautiful performance Angeline has ever seen in all of theatre.
