  • Two Monologues, a Sandwich and a Floyd-Priskorn
    8 Jul. 2024
    So much fun! I laughed out loud several times in Christopher Plumridge's absurdist piece about writing today. A fun window into the kinship of writers.
  • The Santa Thing
    8 Jul. 2024
    "The Santa Thing" by Greg Lam is adorably sweet and funny. A heartwarming addition to any holiday short play festival. Greg Lam's characters are so endearing that we want to invite them to our dinners.
  • [the inner universe]

    I had the pleasure of attending a reading of this beautifully heartbreaking play. Jackson’s journey to find their truth is fraught with pitfalls and pain. Sam Heyman makes us care and fear for Jackson and hold our breathe until the satisfying ending.
  • Audubon Sucks! (15 minutes)
    27 Apr. 2024
    ”Audubon Sucks” by Robin Rice is a layered piece about satisfy life desires. Whether a starving pigeon or a woman starving for validation, we all have needs. Love the cross conversations and witty dialogue.
  • A RAINY NIGHT IN HOLLYWOOD - one-act based on actual events in 1940's Hollywood.
    20 Apr. 2024
    Tom Erb’s “A Rainy night in Hollywood” is a nostalgic peek of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Erb transports us back in time and serves up a strong dramatic piece.
  • ZAMERA: A MONOLOGUE WITH THREE PROM DRESSES
    19 Apr. 2024
    “Zamera: A Monologue with Three Prom Dresses” pulls the audience in from the first words. Asher Wyndham’s monologues are legendary and this one is no exception. We feel deeply for young Zamera and care what happens to her. We want her to have a perfect prom and hope helping her pick her dress will make that happen. Well done.
  • Conferences
    19 Apr. 2024
    “Conferences” is pure fun, as we see this frustrated teacher unleash on her students. Just imagine what drove her to this point. Great piece for actors.
  • Waiting for Roger
    19 Apr. 2024
    “Waiting for Roger” by Lynn Millar is a fun little gem where three dogs are hanging out in a bar, waiting for their friend Roger who they hope will save them from “National Noise Day.” Does he come and save them? Read and find out. :)
  • Just An Old-Fashioned Love Song
    19 Apr. 2024
    “Just An Old Fashioned Love Song” by Philip Middleton Williams is a sweetly nostalgic piece (with a little sassy spice) that reminds us that nothing stays the same. As the characters struggle considering their fates, we also think about our own. Actors will enjoy portraying these characters and costume designers will have a blast.

    What a fun play for actors and audience -- one "Dad" joke piling on after another will keep the audiences laughing the entire time.
