  • An Authentic Rembrandt
    2 Nov. 2021
    We all experience times of self doubt. This lovely play where an art historian conjures Rembrandt and discusses his art and her self doubt recalls our times times of worry and gives us hope.
  • Claire's Invisibility Monologue
    30 Oct. 2021
    A childhood desire that shows at an early age what a strong, independent woman this character will become. But fulfilled desires often have a cost.
  • Birthday Wishes
    30 Oct. 2021
    What makes this play so heartbreaking is the truth that people are living this. And we know the pain will continue and each birthday will be a reminder.
  • POULTRY ... PLEASE!
    30 Oct. 2021
    Family holidays rarely meet expectations and the speaker of this monologue is definitely disappointed. A funny piece, especially for a holiday shorts festival.
  • Nan - A 10-Minute Play

    Beautifully constructed and emotional play. Love the telling mother-daughter relationship.
  • Coming In
    30 Oct. 2021
    What we think are stereotypical characters are skillfully turned on their heads in this comedy. Meeting the parent was never quite like this.
  • Tis True, Ma (Ten Minute)
    26 Oct. 2021
    Even when you are at a mature age and know who you are, you can still long for a parent’s acceptance. Paul Donnelly shows us that understanding and accepting ourselves is the greatest gift we can give.
  • Something True

    An insightful peek into the complexities of a relationship, where we root for this young couple trying to find their truth. Well done.
  • Unprecedented
    24 Oct. 2021
    Keeyna Jackson’s dark comedy “Unprecedented” is a strong commentary on race in the United States. We feel for Mary as the hopes she has for her workplace dissolves. Love “Rasheeda” — Mary’s smart device. Powerful addition to ten minute play festivals.
  • Not Me
    24 Oct. 2021
    Brilliant and fun. Marguerite Louise Scott's dark comedy will keep you guessing with its unexpected twists. The moment you lull yourself into complacency, there's another turn. Would love to see this staged. Well done.
