So much to love about this play! An absurdist, sci-fi play, with three people leaving earth for Mars. Hilarious dialog with line free line so funny that you want to pause to think about them, but you also can’t wait to see what these characters will say next. Underneath this dialog are true feelings of loss, fear, and despair. Well done.

A lovely and authentic monologue where a young woman explores her grief. Beautiful and vivid imagery of flowers and their meaning in a time of grief.

A beautiful coming of age story when friendship turns to romance -- and the confusion, longing, struggles, denials, betrayals that the young can't articulate. When these two meet and reflect together in maturity, the healing can begin.

So much to love in this brief, but emotionally-packed play. Imperfect relationships have a lasting effect on us, as we try to understand. This play comes from the heart.

BOOTS is a hilarious play that takes relationship issues to a new level. Within this delightful play with deliciously impossible characters, there is truth to trying to navigate a struggling relationship. Characters use avoidance, defensive accusations, pleading, and justification — familiar techniques in relationship discussions, but Rachael Carnes goes completely over the top with hilarious results.

As my mother would say, there’s a lid for every pot. A charming play where two “quirky” people beat the odds and find each other. A hopeful and funny play.

Devastating and, unfortunately, real. When two people are everything to each other and they are torn apart, not by death, but by the ignorance and the hatred of others. When tiny bit of compassion is lacking in the final moments. Heartbreaking.

A play about integrity in the workplace and how it feels to see something you believe in disintegrate. The moment when you lose everything, yet gain everything.

Paul Donnelly reminds us that families aren’t perfect. Holidays aren’t perfect, Hard things happen that feel more devastating near the holidays. Well done.

A funny and unexpected monologue. Would be great fun for actors to use their imagination o portray these roles.
