"Beatrix Potter Must Die!" is a true delight. It's a fine and furry fusion of science fiction, comedy, literary criticism and social satire. Patrick Gabridge's tidy little short play is as clever and entertaining and full of surprises as it is laugh-out-loud funny and deeply satisfying.

It’s easy to see why Patrick Gabridge’s play was selected by The Ten Show (Season 2) as one of the top contenders. I watched the short movie made of BEATRIX POTTER MUST DIE! It’s fabulous! A creative, fun story weaving past and present, and getting to the bottom of Ms. Potter’s (possible) inspiration. A truly delightful play to read and watch.

A charming mix of nostalgia and sci-fi. An alternate origin story for Farmer McGregor. Gabridge expertly laces the moving plot with literary references. Sure to be a funny standout to any short play festival.

I produced an audio play version of this script on the radio theater podcast GATHER BY THE GHOST LIGHT after seeing it performed at SUNY Brockport. This play is such a delightful alternative take on the origin of Beatrix Potter's "The Tale of Peter Rabbit". Gabridge ties everything together in such a clever and humorous way. An outstanding script suitable for all ages to enjoy!

Beatrix Potter was a clever writer and this short comedy lets us in on her other abilities. Funny and sweetly Victorian.

Had the privilege of hearing some college students perform this one and now I understand why it's gotten so much attention! It's a great premise with lots of laughs that will no doubt continue to have long life because it's so classic. And how many plays can you tag with "Victorian Comedy"?

A fantastic short comedy with a great twist ending and fun, quirky characters!

A wonderful exploration of a literary classic that keeps us hooked and engaged from start to end. Well done!

I saw a production of this zany show at my university about a year ago - it was a super wild and fun ride! Gabridge leaves a lot of room for productions to play around with props, costumes, and set design. Fun, dynamic characters with a well-used role reversal in the show.
