Recommendations of The Alchemist's Gambit

  • Scott Sickles: The Alchemist's Gambit

    This is why I always fly between major cities instead of drive. The last thing I need is to be strapped to table by a mad scientist with a vague European accent who’s in the mood to “experiment” and not in the sexy way.

    Heyman builds an instantly fun Hammer Films meets Mel Brooks world. The negotiation between mad scientist and alchemist is a delightfully swinging pendulum. The personalities go way beyond archetypes and are insanely fun to play. And how often do you hear “homonculus” these days??? So much fun, ja!

  • Emily McClain: The Alchemist's Gambit

    Oh my goodness this play is a hoot! Dr. Hasenpfeffer's strict-but-slightly-askew moral code creates a wonderfully entertaining problem for the Traveler which sucks for him, but makes a funny 10 minute play for us! A fantastic send-up to the classic evil mad scientist trope, this play would be a tremendous amount of fun to bring to life. Kudos Sam!

  • Monica Cross: The Alchemist's Gambit

    THE ALCHEMIST'S GAMBIT it a hilarious play of dire consequences! Old meets New as a mad scientist is confronted with the knowledge that his newest "test subject" practices the ancient art of alchemy. With witty dialogue and delightful misunderstandings, we are on the edge of our seat as we find out if this Alchemist can persuade his way out of the dissection table.

    Actors will have so much fun with this play!
