  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Wolves

    I found Sapio's Wolves to be a wonderful and theatrical play filled with imagination. The way each role has its own musical instrument as a skill and point of view is such a unique way to create character that reminds me of Aristotle's injunction: we are what we do. I love the ideas in the play and the sense of the outer world encroaching. Fabulous work!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Tax Date

    Wow! A highly theatrical and dramatic script with great subtext and so much for the actors to chew on! Wonderful and surprising work.

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: The Muses Of Humanity

    The Muses of Humanity uses theatre to make some strong statements about the nature of art and inspiration. Mackling confronts the audience in a twist at the end that feels really dramatic and might be great in a Festival of the Dark Strange & Twisted. I am thrilled that Mackling is exploring theatre this way and look forward to where it might lead...

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Aurolac Blues (a short play)

    A beautiful play of transformation. I love these two young Roma street-kids and remember them from my days in Vienna and Paris when I used to be a busker, and the street-kids used to pass out on the sidewalk. I love their dreams and how they are scrounging to survive. Stanescu is a playwright of dreams and should be produced more often!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: A Case Of Anxiety (a ten minute play)

    Have you ever wondered why Mark Harvey Levine gets all the hits on the binge? It's because his plays are hilariously funny and laugh out loud enjoyable. He writes every line to crack us up. Nothing is wasted! Improve your abdominals - read and produce!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: LOVE AND OTHER AILMENTS

    A very funny intergenerational play about love that will be a hit at any festival. It gives me all the right feels. Levine does a super job letting William reveal his marriage and his relationship with his daughter to Teddy by having him use all this personal history as a way to convince Teddy he'd be better off single, and yet the two men seem more alike with each vignette. Well done!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: ZERO PERCENT CHANCE OF VISIBILITY short-form musical by Arianna Rose and Marj O'Neill-Butler

    I am happy to recommend this highly enjoyable, funny and short musical about women of a certain age. I should know - I'm turning 57, my hot flashes long past gone. I wear Lorna's briefs, and I don't care a bit about the junk anyone's got, but this musical makes me think! It shows real authentic desire in older women, and works against all the stereotypes that toss us out once we've started to sag. Visibility rocks!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Oral Herstory

    Lucy Wang's Oral Herstory is hilarious! Great use of lists! Great dramaturgical wackiness that is technically super-proficient! People will laugh until they pee themselves. This delightfully inappropriate bedtime story for a precocious child will keep us all awake in the theatre.

    Killer! Metaphor at work, take note! Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn takes no prisoners in this wild ride of a short play that would be awesome in any short play festival. Easy to produce, fun to direct, and it will stick with you.
