←Recommendations of Dating's A Beast Cycle

You see it again and again in the real world — some women just seem to fall for men who aren't good for them. In this trio of shorts, that concept is taken to the next level, as we're treated to a glimpse of a few hilarious dates with beloved classic monsters! The trio is cleverly structured in the form of "variations," in which we see the same patterns play out over and over. It gets better with every repetition, and the final button is a hoot! By the end, you'll fall for these lovable beasts yourself!

What a great title for this trio of hilarious plays! DATING'S A BEAST CYCLE perfectly sets the tone with the humor built right in, suggests the cyclical structure of Sue's bad-boy dating predilection, and hints at the underlying desperation. I love Kate Danley's use of repetition, in that the introduction ritual gets funnier with each beastly incarnation. This would be a riot for an audience to see and a blast for actors.

In this hilarious comedy Jane and John struggle, not too successfully, to accept Sue's dating choices. But what can you do when your sister keeps bringing home literal monsters? As the cycle repeats, the humor builds.

A very clever triptych of plays based around a simple premise - unlucky-in-love sister brings over her new date, but he's a classic horror movie monster - which gets better each time it is repeated, until finally we are set up for a big payoff in the final go around. Plenty of fun and a surefire hit as an in-between the plays entry for a Halloween play festival.

Great comedy sometimes comes from the rule of three. And this series of mini-plays exemplifies this perfectly. A series of dates with different new potential mates goes awry in hilarious fashion, starting in a similar setting and proceeding in parallel course. The jokes are clever and totally appropriate for the particular situation. Great wordplay too. I loved every bit of this. This definitely needs to make the stage.

A hilarious piece about the cycle of dating when it's one disaster after another! Well done!

I love this! A perfect element to sprinkle throughout your spooky play festival with enough puns to delight even the most un-pun-enthusiastic. A darling idea, leading to the only ending possible. Tres cute!
