  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: FRANTIC IS THE CAROUSEL

    There is so much energy, drama, heat, sexy (yes, as a noun), mind-games, and fire going on, it's a super-fun read and will make a fabulous production! Love that red bikini! Anderson has verve and flair!

  • There is something in the objects in this play, the things they have chosen to buy and the way they are holding it all and adjusting it all as line by line they live their life in front of us - there is something in all that business that holds so much meaning, you gotta love a play like this! Way too short - and I never say that!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: You Were Mine

    However you identify, here is a fascinating characters in a 2hander that is a great exploration of love relationships. Lynett does a great job of shifting the power dynamics throughout the script - a strong match-up between protagonist and antagonist - as she builds the tension to the denouement. Mastering the reveal, Lynett provides us with a 3D portrait of Jacks moment-by-moment in this easy-to-produce show that shakes things up to inspire great late-night talks among couples!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Freaks of the Cosmic Circus

    A beautiful and poetic play to take the shame right out of a person and free us all from our own darkness. Tennessee Williams is such an inspiring subject, and his coming of age is more than worthy as drama. I hope it gets produced soon!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Stiletto Envy

    WOWZA - this is a killer of a heart-breaking play! First I love the title. Next I love the set-up. Then the place, the characters, and the play keeps on getting deeper and deeper until crash boom - my heart! Well done Pipes!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: The Burlesque Astronomy Play

    This is such a fantastic play. The science in this play is the most fun, visual, exploding, marvelous science of all the science plays ever! And the characters are so wonderful - I love how Fiona never stops talking about her kids (this could normally drive me bonkers but because it's Fiona, it's GREAT!) and the love story, the development of our hero, the burlesque is so well done out of experimentation and desire, it's a perfect Valentine! Read, produce, repeat! (don't forget to track all results)

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Unseen

    A mystery and a political exploration of how we live, a romance and a psychological portrait, Unseen makes me wonder how much can we witness? How much can we blind ourselves to? This is a wonderful 3-hander for 3 strong female actors in a tightly structured drama that would be simple to produce! I'd love to see it!

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: World Builders

    This is a charming piece that starts out a somewhat quirky rom-com but ends up something so deep and true and wonderful - it's like the discovery of a prism refracturing light - that so much could come from such a seemingly simple set-up - I am fascinated and thrilled by it!

    This beautiful and strange new world we live in is captured in this dark exploration of rape culture, high tech and greed in a flexible cast play with a Greek Chorus - and I love a Greek Chorus! The language is stunning throughout! Although the play moves wonderfully into a fascinating future, I found it incredibly relevant, human and haunting!
