UNDER MULTICOLORED LIGHTS is a heart-wrenching family drama. From the shocking opening visual moment to the heartbreaking final plea, this 10-minute play is so moving. These are flawed and very human characters fighting for family and love and trying to hold onto what they have left. It is rare that a 10-minute play brings tears to my eyes, but DC Cathro has done just that with this play!

A RESERVATION is a delightful 10-minute play. This play has a fantastic pace and strong comedy throughout. The ridiculousness of needing a reservation for a bathroom is only surpassed by the revelation at the end!

This would be a delightful addition to any evening of 10-minute plays.

MIRACLE ON NEVADA STATE ROUTE 375 is a beautiful reminder that marriage is complicated. Sometimes our partners can be annoying, or mean, or thoughtful, or caring. Gale and Simone couldn't have drifted further apart at the beginning of this play, but a Miracle changes all of that. This is a beautiful play, funny at times, heartbreaking at others. But full of the magic of human experience!

BRAVO, Steve!

IN FLIGHT is a delightful romp through the world of airline publications! The verse and rhyming couplets reinforces the fast pace of the plot. With intrigue and deception, this comedy packs a punch!

I found myself reading parts out loud so that I could enjoy the word play that Jenny Lyn Bader weaves throughout the play. It is absolutely delightful.

READ THIS PLAY!

Whoa!

EVERY GLORIOUS SECOND OF EVERY FUCKING DAY is a wild ride of a script! I loved it... but does that mean I would kill for it? Read this play and find out! This is a gloriously unsettling play!

I saw From the Couch Theatre's zoom production and it is a fantastic piece for zoom! Reading through the script, I would also love to see it on a stage!

I highly recommend!

BLACK, WHITE, & RED ALL OVER is the perfect play about life in the time of COVID-19. It is also an ideal play for Zoom. I had the opportunity to see From the Couch Theatre's Zoom production, and it worked great! It is so fun and adorable and wonderfully awkward!

Daniel Prillaman has truly given us a gift with this play!

Read it! Produce it!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

What a Monologue!

There is intrigue, revelation, heartache, and wine! END OF A LONG, LONG DAY is so elegantly knit together. It starts out with the simple, the everyday, the mundane, and the WHAM! It hits you! And suddenly the stakes are through the roof!

This beautiful, stand alone piece packs a punch in its subtle twists and turns.

Read this piece! Produce this piece!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

BEFORE THE STORM is a high octane monologue! The Chief of Surgery projects an even keel but underneath are rip currents of emotion. This is a great monologue for a woman, and works just as well on Zoom as it would on Stage!

Read it! Produce it!

I participated in a cold read of this short play, and missed my cue because I was so taken aback by it! Steven G. Martin gives us a breathtaking and horrifying vision of the future. It's stunning in its devastation. BRAVO!

This started out as a Joke! Now it is an indisputable fact! (maybe) Daniel Prillaman (master of horror) becomes the a figure of sublime horror himself in Steven G. Martin's short play. This a delightful play!
