About this ebook

On Tour with the Seven Deadly Sins is a collection of six modern morality plays, which look at the dark side of human nature in a humorous way. The first two plays, On Tour and An Interview present the Seven Deadly Sins completing with each other to demonstrate which one makes the most substantial contribution to the common good. Signs of the Times features the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse who have surfaced during a particularly chaotic election cycle. In The Good Adjunct, Biz Mo (business model) makes her moves on President C. E. Ohno and puts the whole enterprise of higher education at risk. The last two plays are about what the modern age has done to Sophia (Wisdom) as seen through Aristotle and Carl Jungs competing and contradictory constructions of the human psyche. The plays move from the public to the private, from the surface to the interior, revealing that all souls fall somewhere along the continuum between service to self and service to others.
