Two stories, 48 years apart!

“One More Chance” is set in 1977 Central Arkansas and shows a slice of life in a family where two brothers are in love with the same young lady, a mother holds secrets from her past, and a husband fights to keep his family together. What could possibly go wrong in this two-act comedy?  

Forty-eight years later, a family member finds himself embroiled in an officer-involved incident, and a family gathering disintegrates into chaos as a community erupts in protest. Can a young generation lead them to a place of peace? This is the story of “One Last Chance” a two-act drama co-written with DeAndre Lewis, Mr. Dupins’ former student and current teaching colleague. The sequel is set in 2025 Little Rock.
