What happens when your characters take on a life of their own? Sebastian and Lisa find out when this writing team is brought together again some years after a breakup to collaborate on a new play. Their invented characters physically take the stage and interact, not only with each other, but with their playwright creators. This leads to head-spinning comedy for the audience and insight for our playwright protagonists. Zaffarano sets a high bar for creativity and comedic gold with The Playmakers.

What a giddy and engaging celebration of the vagaries of romance and of the creative process. The charming revelation at the end made me smile and go "Awwwwww." And the banking scenes are comic gold. This play would be a real treat to perform as well as to see performed.

This full length romantic comedy is set up so uniquely, I absolutely loved it! Lisa and Sebastian are exes, professionally and personally. They've reunited to write a new play, and the characters they create wander in and out of the scenes, interacting with each other and with Lisa and Sebastian as well. I loved it, and I would love to see it on its feet even more. The dialogue rings very true, with two people who know each other so well that they are able to push each other's buttons with barely any energy. What a sweet, interesting piece.
