Recommendations of CHANCE MEETING (a one-act play)

  • Ben Rosenblatt: CHANCE MEETING (a one-act play)

    Pure friendship doesn't get enough stage time, but it's at the heart of this beautifully drawn one act. Chance Meeting offers real, believable characters with depth, and in some respects, is a love letter to NYC in a time that it really needs some love. This is a heartfelt play set during the pandemic, but it manages to be about so much more: companionship, vulnerability and deep connection. Loved it.

  • Colette Cullen: CHANCE MEETING (a one-act play)

    What a delightful and beautifully written play. It may be set in NYC but neighbours becoming friends is universal. The three characters are so well drawn and the pace is perfect and never falters. I love the theme of friendship which is vastly undervalued. I didn't want the play to end and could have stayed on that fire escape with 3B, 4B and 4D a whole lot longer. It may be set in the time of the pandemic but it has a timeless quality too. When can I see a production?

  • Selma Hazouri: CHANCE MEETING (a one-act play)

    I love this play. This very New York feeling of it, the chance meeting, the genuine interactions between 3 very different people yet all similar in their solitude. The pandemic details are just enough without going overboard. The character reveals give the reader/observer enough detail and there is a ring of truth to all three.

  • D. Lee Miller: CHANCE MEETING (a one-act play)

    Funny thing to say, but I'm grateful for this play. It feels like a NYC play but it's a play for apartment dwellers everywhere. Neighbors you met on local park benches, front stoops, even elevators are pretty much gone in the age or technology and the pandemic. In this play, we're given a chance to see neighbor meet neighbor - and remember what neighbors are about. Companionship, support, and connecting. How enjoyable to watch these characters unabashedly discover each other. A lovely play.

  • John Mabey: CHANCE MEETING (a one-act play)

    Strangers who are also neighbors make for great fun! In this thoughtful and well-crafted one act, three people discover more than they ever thought possible in the most unexpected situation. I'm a huge fan of exploring adult friendships and this play was incredibly satisfying.
