Thomas, Noah, Olivia and Archie come together for the death anniversary of their friend, Jake, who died in a car crash a year ago. But when an outsider arrives with a birthday cake, the evening takes a turn no one saw coming.

Secrets slip out. Old wounds resurface. Resentments bubble up.
Grief doesn’t play fair, and neither does love.

Stale Cake is a 55-minute emotional pressure cooker, written with the dark wit of a sitcom and the rawness of a confession. This is a story about holding on too tightly, letting go too late, and the uneasy truth that sometimes some friendships are not meant to last forever.

Uncomfortably funny. Surprisingly tender. Deeply human.
No matter how much icing you use, the cake still goes stale.

The Murder Of Not All Men is about femicide and violence against women, through the eyes of a film-noir detective with a lot of skeletons in her closet.

"Not all men, but all women do have a story about a man."
