I selected this play to be produced as part of our college's Spring 2021 Online Play Festival. What appears to be a simple transaction, a magician performing for a child's birthday party, eventually reveals an inner desperation as both characters are attempting to find a meaningful connection in a world that has forced them into lonely isolation. The play veers from comedy to pathos in this boisterous 10-minute play.

B Street Theatre performed this piece as part of our Virtual New Play Brunch series. Jess' short play, written for the "Zoom" or Digital Stage, packs so much in to only ten minutes. "AMAZING" is a full story filled with laughs, surprises, sadness and uncertainty for the future. Also, it showcases two (very simple!) close-up magic tricks. And who doesn't love magic?! While I've seen Zoom plays have different degrees of success, this play is unique in the sense that the setting of Zoom adds to the effectiveness of Honovich's wonderful storytelling.
