  • Shaun Leisher: fire ants (co written with Lily Houghton)

    A brilliant short play to help us remember the writer's strike. This play went to some really fun and absurd places. Loved these characters.

  • Shaun Leisher: Whisper Music - Ten Minute Play

    A fun short play that starts out nice and sweet and goes to some very dark places. I really enjoyed the dialogue in this play. These characters feel really lived-in.

  • Shaun Leisher: powpowpowpowpowpowpowpowBANG

    This play is an absolute mindfuck. I really had a good time reading it and would love to see an adventurous team of artists produce this.

  • Shaun Leisher: Every Little Nookie

    I really enjoyed getting to spend time with this chosen family. These characters are so well-written and complex. Nothing about their situations are easy to understand. I loved the split and meshed scenes. Really makes you lean in and pay attention to the journeys these characters go on. I really found myself rooting for Margaret and the changes she goes through.

  • Shaun Leisher: revelations from the first and last ever rehearsal of THEY SAY I DID SOMETHING BAD: an unauthorized taylor swift parody musical about the life of the unabomber ted kaczynski presented by the bridgebrook college drama club

    This play was absolutely brilliant. Part absurdist comedy, part treatise on sexual violence, part takedown of Taylor Swift and part exploration of the power art has to deal with trauma. I have my self laughing and being deeply moved at the same time. The ending is something I'll be thinking about for a long time. Great roles for LGBTQ actors.

  • Shaun Leisher: Chuan & Eve

    A moving play about mental health and how hard it can be to ask for help. I loved the sci-fi aspects of this play and how it explores generational trauma.

  • Shaun Leisher: You Must Wear a Hat

    What a fantastic play. An important piece about climate change that features two people yearning for connection. Loved all the unique stage directions. I want to see this play fully realized.

  • Shaun Leisher: Oedipus Vexed; or Tragic Motherfucker

  • Shaun Leisher: Figment of Manifestation

    What a sweet short play. Loved the wordless moment at the end. Might make you believe in true love after all.

  • Shaun Leisher: Tourist Trap (Short)

    I loved these characters so much. Loved getting to experience their disappointment along with their excitement. Guo has managed to pack a wide range of emotions in such a few number of pages.
