  • Shaun Leisher: Agape or; The Church Play

    A great play about faith and how ill-equipped the church can be when it comes to mental health. Loved how passionate these young characters are about their faiths. Was so moved seeing them struggle to figure out how to talk to God. Asante expertly blends the asking of big questions and intimate moments between friends. A great ensemble piece for Black actors.

  • Shaun Leisher: overgrown

    A fantastic ensemble piece for actors of a variety of ages. All these characters and their beliefs are so multi-faceted and layered. You just don't get to experience these types of perspectives on stage very often. Loved that this is a play that features a cast of character all with a common job and goal. A fascinating look at the unsung heroes that make elections happen safely and fair.

  • Shaun Leisher: Salutations, I'm Creative Dave

    I really loved this play. So weird and unique. Brasch wonderfully captures what a play written by AI would sound like. The ending was really moving.

  • Shaun Leisher: Happy Days Are Here (Again)

    A chilling play about the cost and necessity of speaking out against those in power. A play about abuse perpetrated by those young people should trust. This is a play that needs to be seen everywhere. A wonderfully written ensemble of characters. A great opportunity for older and younger actors to really dive into complex roles.

  • Shaun Leisher: Agent of Change

    A fun short play about making changes that impact our world. A lot of comedy is mined from this situation.

  • Shaun Leisher: DELAWARE, COME HOME

    "Staying in one place is asking for trouble"

    This piece is a poetic monologue that covers a variety of topics ranging from domestic violence to a lost dog. This was a fun character to get to spend time with in such a short amount of time. Would love to see how a creative team creates the antenna.

  • Shaun Leisher: this dry spell

    I'm gonna be thinking about this play for a long time. Loved the magical realism in this play. Loved how funny and romantic this play is. A play about falling in love and making art and finding purpose in life.

  • Shaun Leisher: My Father Was Shot in the Back of the Head

    A fantastic coming of age story. Would love to see this produced with the use of puppets and other theatrical techniques. It's impossible not to feel for the characters in this play. I found this play very moving. Humor and heartbreak is blended together to create a compelling piece of theatre.

  • Shaun Leisher: FIONA

    This play was a true mind-bender. Loved peeling back all the layers and trying to figure out what was going on. I really loved this play and what it has to say about the state of art and it's power to distract from the atrocities facing our world. I really hope to see this produced one day.
