  • Steven G. Martin: Bartleby & Bess (5-10 minute play) by Elisabeth Giffin Speckman
    “

    Speckman captures the energy of a nervous person waiting for the big moment. It's so effective, an audience will hold its collective breath. Fortunately, after the build-up of tension and the grating of nerves, Speckman allows everyone to exhale with an underplayed moment.

    Charming! An interior meltdown in a setting chockfull of comings and goings, partings and meetings. Will the past catch up with the present? Was the effort to get here worth it? Speckman traces the wobbling pathway in someone's mind, as this rich character confronts his own foibles and wonders what happens next. A lovely moment in time.
