THEATRE FOR THE WHALES is a delightful farce about bringing Hamlet's "To be or not to be" speech (even the second have that no one cares about) to a group who has never experienced theatre: THE WHALES! Captian Moby and a motley crew experience mishap and misadventure in their quest to perform for the whales. It is fun and fast paced and full of physical comedy. This would be great for a sketch comedy troupe or short play festival.

This show will truly brighten your day!

OF NIGHT AND DARK OBSCURITY is a haunting 10-minute play. Scott Sickles gives us an eerie backdrop to this supernatural tale. Despite only two characters on stage, the tale hosts an expansive world full of strange figures. Revenge is bittersweet and not at all what you would expect when it finally comes for these characters.

Highly recommended!

THE OLD-RAILROAD is a beautiful one-minute play about family and shared experiences. It is a lovely and tender moment for two men to share on stage. Check it out! And add it to any wintery short play festival you may have planned!

I got to see this show in Orlando and I had an absolute ball! THE BOOK OF MERMAN is a laugh out loud musical parody that makes for a delightful, feel good evening of theatre. It is a light hearted romp with a sweet message. It is a must see! And perfect for any theatre looking for an uplifting play with a small cast to put in their post pandemic season.

STUMPP is a beautiful horror play of epic proportions! Part nightmare, part quest, Aidan O'Reilly weaves characters and authors, history and legend together. I am excited by the staging possibilities and the design ideas this script conjures for me. Complete with very meaty parts for actors. It would be a blast to be a part of.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLAY!

If you are looking for a dark office comedy, this is the play for you! IN SEARCH OF PLAN A gives us humor and desperation in equal measure as Amy Dellagiarino's characters confront that they have jumped to a very drastic plan B without fully exploring their plan A. This fun emotional roller-coaster would be an absolute treat for comedic actors.

PRODUCE THIS PLAY!

Amazing! TOASTER PROBLEM offers the audience a complex dilemma regarding the debate surrounding artificial intelligence in the span of one minute! The quick calculations of this short play are in sharp contrast to the ethical problem presented. It is fun and witty!

Definitely check this out!

MAJOR SERIOUS FUCKING DIET confronts the absurdity of diet culture. Lee Lawing highlights how a fixation on food and restriction can damage relationships and take the joy out of holidays. This monologue also points to the way diets can create unhealthy associations to food such as overcompensating when "breaking" a diet as a result of long term restriction. Lee's character of Reece is so steeped in diet culture that she can't even see how it is effecting her, and we are given the space to laugh at her absurdity and hopefully learn from it.

Ever considered who the person to eat a sea creature was? DC Cathro proposes what that scenario might have looked like.

Amusing and Insightful THE FIRST PESCATARIAN (BASED ON THE ANCIENT TEXTS) would be so much fun to stage. Fun for the actors! Fun for the designers! Fun all around!

Highly Recommended!

WHAT A PLAY!!!! From the title, there is an idea of where this is going, but knowing from the start doesn't make it any less brutal when it hits. And everything else just makes it all the more visceral. We are confronted by the causal cruelty without being forced to be party to it. Bailey Macejak gives us the perfect level of abstraction to confront this horror. The play is rounded out by snappy dialogue and fascinating characters.
