←Recommendations of Next Year, Transformers! (Ten Minute)

A great play about parenthood and pop culture. A perfect blend of humor and heart. Oh, and it all takes place on my favorite holiday--Halloween!

The very spectacle of two divorced parents dressed as Star Wars characters on a park bench is extremely funny, but behind we see a sadness and a difficult struggle. Having been (and still am) in the Richard character I can attest to how accurate this two hander is. What always plucks at my heart strings in similar situations as this is the love two parents still have for each other despite their separation and differences, they share the love of their child, Paul depicts this beautifully.

Terrific little play, full of heart and humour. Paul uses every word so beautifully, making his characters jump off the page and into our hearts. Great read that would make a wonderful production.

A very relatable comedy about the frustration two parents have after a Halloween that just didn't go right for their son and all of their other issues rise to the surface. But in the end, parents have a funny way of resolving their differences. Well done.

This play captures an important "ten minute moment" in the lives of these characters with a big dose of heart and just enough visual humor to keep you smiling.

This is such a lovely and powerfully sincere piece. In just ten short pages, Donnelly gives us everything we need to know about these two people. It's funny, it's relatable, and it's beautifully human. Some truly lovely character work here, and this would be such a fun piece for actors. Lovely, understated, and utterly charming.

Aw, this one hits in all the feels. Donnelly sets up a familiar scene: Parents struggling to cope with their unraveling relationship try to navigate caring for their boy. It’s such a common issue, handled here with nuance and humor. From the opening visual — dad in a Darth Vader costume, mom as Princess Leia - we see how hard they’re trying, even if they’re not sure how this goes.
