  • Monica Cross: The Great Globe Itself

    This play tugged at my heart, and made me laugh out loud! From a plot to cheat Shakespeare to trying to get a part on Doctor Who, this play looks at 3 different Globes at 3 different times, but all surrounding one body of work. This is a play about legacy, and David Hansen highlights the power of words by sprinkling Shakespeare's lines throughout the script. This play is irreverent one minute and pays homage to the bard the next. It is smart, and funny, and very sad all at the same time. READ THIS PLAY, AND THEN PRODUCE IT!

  • Monica Cross: Saint (short play)

    This play calls into question how well we really know someone, what is reputation really worth, and what we leave behind when we die. It saw a recording of this play as part of David's "The Short Play Project" on twitter. I delightful piece of dark comedy!

    This is a fun script! Great for a short scene for a directing or acting class. It's a good script to play with energy and pace. I saw a recording of this script as part of David's "The Short Play Project" on twitter. A very enjoyable short play!

  • Monica Cross: Pale Revelry

    Gill's play speaks to our current moment. In a new york city apartment, surrounded by the plague, some friends try to throw a party. This play asks questions about what's important in a time of crisis, and what responsibilities do we have to those around us. This play is a good read in these troubled times!

  • Monica Cross: Homecoming '92

    This play packs a lot into 20 minutes: Homecoming, a dead body, an interrupted make out session. This play is a journey of self-discovery, as Benji has to make some split sections decisions that could change his life. It mixes fast-paced banter with some shocking moments. It's a great play for college students!

  • Monica Cross: A Jumble of Worn Words

    Bavoso packs a range of emotions into 10 minutes. While the play centers on a woman grappling with the death of her sister, there are some many nuances and details that bring these characters to life. Check out this play!
