  • This play. Please read and produce this play. It speaks to teenagers, parents, and our current times in an America steeped with guns. Eric Loo has such a sense of his characters and mines touching humor from difficult situations.

    Ah, Carrie Barrett, hilarious, insightful, and always original. Read her plays -- you will be glad you got to spend the day with her words.

  • Lolly Ward: Apple Season

    Lewis winds the present with memories throughout her story, giving us a compelling taste of farm families and the decisions that make a life. This look at rural America feels especially timely as we struggle with urban and rural ideals.

  • Lolly Ward: BLISS (or Emily Post is Dead!)

    I fell in love with this play from moment one. And I continue to think about it, in terms of humor, heart, stage craft, and sheer smarts. Jami Brandli throws numerous balls in the air and catches them deftly, creating a whole wonderful world to remember.

  • Lolly Ward: Caesar's Blood

    Rich Rubin captures the era with his evocative language and finely tuned backstage look at the Booth brothers. The script feels even more timely now with American politics at a fever pitch.

  • Lolly Ward: A Science Thing

    This beautiful short play, A Science Thing, made the audience laugh and then tear up with its poignant look at estranged family and the thought that might reconnect them.
