  • A String Between Man and the World
    27 Jan. 2019
    A gripping play that draws you deeper and deeper into the mind of Miles Alloway, who may or may not be insane. Zubel’s descriptive and poetic language set against Mike’s fervor keeps the audience on the edge. Well done.
  • Can't Live Without You
    29 Dec. 2018
    A resonating and compelling play where writer Donny realizes that he has slowly and steadily lost his true self to live a pleasant, but not authentic, life. As he is confronted by himself in the form of a character he created in an unfinished novel, he is also confronted by his partner to make a life choice that would completely close off the path back to his former self. No matter which path Donny chooses, hurt, pain and loss is inevitable.
  • Almost There
    26 Dec. 2018
    A quirky man “meets” a woman who is both appalled and intrigued by him. A fun play for the actors and the audience — great addition to a short play festival.
  • ROOM 27
    26 Dec. 2018
    The iconic 27 Club — the famous seven rockers who died at 27 — come to “life” in this imaginative play. The musicians are in hell, waiting to perform. They are in true hell, as they are unable to do what they loved best. Burdick’s creative play and sharp dialogue keep us wondering and hoping for our musical heroes until the last word. Bravo.
  • Last Exit
    23 Dec. 2018
    A play that makes you hold your breath as you see two people looking sadly at their broken relationship. The finality of their break up on moving day forces them into a goodbye that neither seems to want to say. Both heartbreaking and heartwarming. Well done.
  • Overqualified
    23 Dec. 2018
    Vansant hits the nail on the head within this fun play about job interviewing. It’s tough deciding which “self” you should put forward when you want and need that job. A funny play that teaches us to trust our ourselves.
  • So When Are You Leaving? (Full-length Comedy)
    22 Dec. 2018
    When this endearing dysfunctional family gathers for a summer holiday, swords are drawn and no prisoners are taken. A hilarious, non-stop ride. Thank you, Sheila Rinear, for a truly funny play.
  • The Final Battle (As it Occurred in the Holy City of Game Emporium and Exchange)
    21 Dec. 2018
    Pure fun for audiences and a tremendous opportunity for actors to play these “over the top” characters. Would love to see this on stage.
  • Threat Level: Cream
    21 Dec. 2018
    A seemingly “normal” commute with fun and witty banter that leads you in one enjoyable direction. But then Bavaso pulls the rug under you with a marvelous twist. Well done!
  • Water
    21 Dec. 2018
    Hovanesian has created a character audiences will love to hate and will delight when he is smacked in his smug privilege. Strong dialog with a clever twist.
