  • The Replacement by Morey Norkin
    31 Jan. 2023
    “ Here is a brilliantly conceived idea that is worked with great finesse and humor! Norkin takes on the Holocaust deniers and white supremacists in a funny, punny, and satirical story that would be a hit at any festival! Wonderful work! ”
  • Siren by Lisa VillaMil
    31 Jan. 2023
    “ I loved how this play uses spaces and silences to enhance its theatricality. The possibilities for connection, beauty and meaning arise fluidly and dramatically in this brilliant script. I highly recommend it. ”
  • Urashima Taro by Morey Norkin
    31 Jan. 2023
    “ A beautiful Japanese folktale that Norkin adapts into a great short play! Norkin has a light hand as a writer and a director's vision, so it's easy to imagine it all onstage. I appreciate the heart in the piece. Well done. ”
  • To My Dearest Wife Mary by Christopher Plumridge
    27 Jan. 2023
    “ What a marvelous surprise! I fully enjoyed this piece. The family is so clear, and there is such a great tension in the letters. Plumridge has a great knack for thrilling his audience, and this is a great example of his skill. ”
  • Y & Z by Christopher Plumridge
    27 Jan. 2023
    “ A thriller that can be as scary as your own mind allows! This radio drama is a mystery that really moves. As strange as it is fascinating. ”
  • Beyond Neverland (A Lost Children Story) by Hannah Lee DeFrates
    27 Jan. 2023
    “ Here is a touching tale of two adults who are vulnerable and lost in a kind of 4th floor Bardo with lives that are happening, and yet the characters exist along with so much missed or missing. Their realization of time passing and adulting happening and casseroles v. candy gives us plenty to chew on in this philosophical and bittersweet play. ”
  • Mixed Signals by Aly Kantor
    17 Jan. 2023
    “ I find this play so immensely relatable as another alien being, not just a lesbian but truly alien, yes, I get it. And it's really a super play that will creep people out in a festival, in the best ways, because aliens. And lesbians. And it is so other-worldly! The sounds. The lighting possibilities. The characters moment to moment... Super work! ”
  • The Alchemist's Gambit by Sam Heyman
    14 Jan. 2023
    “ I love the vague accents and the brandishing of the handsaw! This is a very silly ode to marriage which is the heart of the comic impulse. It will be hilarious to see performed! ”
  • War Bride of Mormon County by Randall Huskinson
    12 Jan. 2023
    “ A beautifully written, theatrical family drama. Every line rings true. The way we refuse to look at difficult truths, the way family ties trump love and outsiders, the strength of our upbringing/grooming makes it so hard to see and recognize what is happening. Great roles for women who are each strong and working hard to fight patriarchal power at its most intense. Huskinson ramps up the tensions to keep audiences on the edges of their seats to the very end! ”
  • Before We Were Bake Sale Pies (3 Min Play) by Elisabeth Giffin Speckman
    12 Jan. 2023
    “ A marvelous sensory experience that would be so much fun for the actors involved and the audience. Longing and loss poetically compete with ideas on objectification and pleasure. Buy these pies! ”
