Sam (she/her) is an award-winning theater artist who has worked in practically every area that theatre has to offer, all while raising her own two little performers. She received a BA degree in Theatre Arts Studies from BYU in 2019 and an MA degree in Arts Administration from SUU in 2022. Her passions are advocating for human rights and celebrating new works. When she’s not working on a project she’s probably searching for her next one or watching Gilmore Girls.

  • This is such a unique idea for a script, to write about ideas for scripts. In such a short time I really felt sympathetic for the playwright when his muse is gone. I've had the goal for years to try and develop my playwriting skills and I've written a few short plays, but I often seem to face the writer's block highlighted in this script, as many established writers do too. As an emerging playwright, I appreciate how relatable this script is and the way I can feel seen when I read it. Wonderful!

  • This script is marked as comedy and it definitely is, I giggled multiple times. At the same time, it hurt my heart that I couldn't help but feel the unfortunate truth in the lines. Thanks for writing this. It's a super important commentary on the state of the union today.

  • Dark humor about one of the most famous "love stories" of all time. I loved reading this! I laughed out loud multiple times. This is a fantastically crafted piece about a strong woman who isn't an afterthought anymore.

  • Wow. Who would have thought that a collection of questions could make a person feel so much, so deeply? The way Carbajal pulls together these questions into a found monologue can truly make people feel less alone in this existence knowing how many of us wonder "why" about the same things.

  • The dialogue and commentary on religion are very fascinating. I appreciated the arc that each character went through by the end of the script. This playwright has a lot to say. Abortion and religion are very hot topics right now. This is a great way to continue that conversation.
