←Recommendations of Sales of a Dead Man

This is a brilliant farcical comedy that shows how cut throat the world of inter office competition can be, even dead men don't hang onto their figures for long. This would make a brilliant entry to a festival. I love the quick and witty back and forth and the ending is just genius. I never get bored of reading Arther Jolly's work, and neither should you!

This short play goes by in a fast paced flurry of one liners! Great parts for all the players. I was laughing at the delightfully awkward way everyone dealt with death in a cut throat sales office! Great concept.

A hilarious and true to life depiction of the mourning process in a sales office. Well done.

Arthur M Jolly takes a satirical swing at one of Mamet’s best known works. He does so with a tongue-in-cheek, Christopher Durang touch... and it all plays really well. Read it. And then go to lunch.

A funny parody of Glengarry Glen Ross. So well done and as one reviewer said, family friendly to boot. A deserved win at the Tree City Playhouse competition!

Here is a parody of a very famous play by a very famous man that does pretty much what that guy did only funnier and in only ten pages, and without all that nasty language! Jolly does with life insurance what some other guy did with real estate only I am so happy to recommend this! And life insurance is a much better choice, dramatically, because it's life insurance, and you probably don't get paid if you lie down in front of a bus. Read this as a matter of policy.

Although it's set pre-cellphones, this 10-minute black comedy, parodying Mametian behavior, reflects society now, not just the white-collar corporate world like that of life insurance agents - it speaks to our cut-throat competition, that insatiable greediness, the valuing of the monetary and the material over human life and dignity. A great ensemble piece for a short play - most 10-minute plays are just for two actors. Highly recommended.

If you've got a male-heavy ensemble with tight comic timing and a way with a laugh line, this brisk and loopy short should bring the house down.
