Recommendations of Tender Chickens

  • Paul Braverman: Tender Chickens

    If Tennessee Williams, Sigmund Freud and Colonel Sanders collaborated to write a comedy, it would still not be as funny as John Busser's puntastic take on chicken family dynamics. This short play is loaded with some of the silliest double entendre this side of Laugh-In. Actors will have an absolute blast with this one!

  • Jennifer O'Grady: Tender Chickens

    With three delightful non-human (see title for a hint!) characters, hilarious dialogue and some really clever stage directions, Busser's ten-minute play centering a somewhat overenthusiastic mom is super-fun to read and would be even more fun to see on stage.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Tender Chickens

    The over the top puns and chicken/gender stereotypes are fast and furiously hilarious. This will be a real barn burner of a show! Kooky design opportunities and physical comedy as well, this is absolutely cracked!

  • Philip Middleton Williams: Tender Chickens

    There comes a time in reading a John Busser play that you begin to wonder when he will run out of jokes and hilarious stage instructions. Not to worry: with this latest entry in his comic repertoire, the humor and hilarity comes fast and furious and no chicken yolk...uh, joke is left untouched. The next step for this short is into the hands of Wallace & Gromit for "Chicken Run III."

  • Morey Norkin: Tender Chickens

    Somewhere Jo Anne Worley is screaming, “Is that another chicken joke?!” Yes, Jo Anne. Hundreds of chicken jokes packed into an extra crispy, hilarious ten minutes. John Busser has hatched one of the most Busserian pieces I have ever encountered. And that means I lost count of how many times I guf-FAWKED!
