    MARJ O’NEILL-BUTLER’s “The Bench Plays” are an enjoyable assortment of eleven short plays, with each taking place with a bench. I liked the variety of the characters and plots, as well as the seriousness and humor found among them. An audience will certainly see elements of themselves, if they’re older, or if they’re younger, something that reminds them of an older person in their life.

    I just finished reading Marj O'Neill-Butler's Bench Plays. What a brilliant and funny concept. A delight to read. I'll be smiling for the rest of the day. Looking forward to seeing these performed.

    I can echo Arianna Rose's comments, having also had the pleasure of reading all of the bench plays. I marvel at how Ms. O'Neill-Butler was able to imagine so many different scenarios around a simple premise. You'll have a good time reading them, too. Excellent work!
