Box of Teeth is a sensitive and loving play that is deeper than its ten-minute running time. People were crying during our production... our actors are great but so it this play.

Playwrights at Night, my reading and production company, presented Date Takes a few months ago. What a riot! It is hilarious and unique... both traditional and experimental.
We are planning another presentation because it has been one of our most popular performances. Thanks, Jen, for trusting us.

Waylay Makeover is a truly funny short play that can be staged as over-the-top and WAY over-the-top. Playwrights at Night, the reading and production company I direct, has been rehearsing this and can't wait to perform. So much fun!

This is a super interesting play that can be performed in a minimalist space or as a dark, surreal play. There are both elements of family drama and horror in it. The play asks questions about the value of life for addicts and about the border between what is depraved and what is absolutely necessary.

This is a beautifully written play that reveals the desire for community between two people who lead very different lives. A woman who is grieving meets a young, high-functioning autist man on his first day at his retail job. What first seems to be discomfort blooms into a healing friendship. Sensitively written.

I live in NJ, and in many ways this is a Jersey play. However, it is also a universal play. It taps into the whole 'reality show' vibe and the desperation of small business owners to maintain success.
Really fleshed-out characters and an interesting story. I can see the entire play take place in my mind's eye. Fast-paced and fun. I would love to see this play on stage because of the energy, the people and the movement of the story.

Monologues are hot right now, and when I read good ones like this, I understand why. They're not easy to write, but when they're successful, they pack a punch. A is for American alludes to the country's bigoted history but does so in a way that pulls people together. The bits about Hawaii are hilarious.

Lucy Wang is so incredibly funny here. The connections seem random, but they're not. This, like many of her other plays/monologues, revolves around language and the deeper meanings behind the words we take for granted

A very touching short play about theater, people who love theater, and the pandemic. Lights are going out... but some people are still holding on.
I was really touched.

This is a fantastic play for teens and college students. The characters are likable, and I couldn't help rooting for the 'ghosts' as well. It's so interesting and appropriate for our time. I hope to read this with my community college students and discuss the play's universe to prompt a literary analysis.
