                  Joy and Juliette
  Margo recently has written the book and some of the songs for the jukebox musical comedy/drama, Joy and Juliette, drawing on the songs of her late friend and sometime collaborator, Tia Shawnté.
​  The show is about two would-be artistes, a writer and a singer/songwriter, who, after facing many roadblocks, team up and take a chance on a second chance. Then, COVID strikes.
  The story becomes a tale of survival, perseverance, love, hope, junk food, and coming to terms with what ails you.

​        The Mrs. and the Manatee

  The Mrs. and the Manatee was the favorite comedy at the 10-Minute Play Festival in September 2022 at the Valerie Theatre in Inverness, Fla. It's about a velvet-painting artist, challenged to question her life's focus by a wise and vivacious manatee.
