Recommendations of Mementos (3-5 Minute Play)

  • Fiona Leonard: Mementos (3-5 Minute Play)

    Beautifully visual and tightly crafted. I would love to see this performed with each character having the space to bring forth their unique take. I feel like this is a play from which you would take away different things each time you saw it.

    As one who exhibits definite hoarder-like tendencies, this short but powerful piece hit home. Visually fascinating and challenging, you’ll relate and feel with (and for) these women. A strong statement on consumerism and the desire to leave behind a meaningful legacy. Lovely, sad, and hopeful.

    A short and powerful protest against consumerism, and whether our actions do indeed reflect our true selves.

    Evocative and visual, Speckman's short play packs a wallop in its few pages. What are we, besides our accumulations? These characters' immediate sympathy and their relatable predicament - reflecting on the past and accounting for the present - will force critical reflection of our consumer-driven society, and the roles defined for women, and how they play an integral part in the drivers of capitalism. Powerful stuff!

    Thought-provoking play about the clutter in our lives, both externally and inside. Speckman puts together such a powerful play in such few words that there is no clutter in her piece since every word is needed for this beautiful tribute to the possibilities of change.

    We all clutter up our lives with intangible objects. This play hits home for all of us in some way. Relatable and thought provoking!

    A whimsical, playful, sad yet hopeful snapshot of a life lived and its refuse. Would make a great easy-to-produce scene in a night full of shorts, or as an opening act to something longer. Sticks with you!
