My Family's Tax Evasion: A 10-Minute Play
Abstract
My Family’s Tax Evasion is a 10-minute dramedy that follows the character, Mom, as she tries to complete her family’s taxes one April day. However, the task proves to be difficult with a family member interrupting at every passing moment. Although each disruption has comedic elements, we discover that Mom is experiencing built-up tension and emotions that go deeper than the present problems. It is not until the end that Mom’s feelings are outwardly expressed, but the family is receptive and responsive to give her what she needs to complete the family taxes. This play explores themes of womanhood, motherhood, individuality, and family.
