Life history of the African elephant -- Nobody of consequence -- Replacement -- Spill and spell -- Invention of music.

"Absurdity reigns in multiple award-winning author and playwright Clem Martini’s newest collection of work, Martini with a Twist - five plays spanning twenty years of Martini’s career, from 1989 to 2009. A lonely elephant handler befriends the half-blind woman who drove through his yard, a severed head in a suitcase life support system is given a second chance at life, a quiet shut-in wrestles with the jealous ghost of his wife, a young coed with the ability to smell lies struggles to make new friends, and a mismatched pod of whales in the Pacific Ocean contend with identity, love, and interspecies dating. With a sharp tongue and impeccable comedic timing, Martini’s characters resonate beyond their impossible situations, their fears and hesitations all too human."--Provided by publisher.

Canadian drama.
