This show shares an interesting perspective on the Hawaiian experience. The stakes are high, which makes the exchange between these two women poignant and strong. ”

- A TRICK OF THE LIGHT by11 Aug. 2023“ A fun, light (if you'll pardon the pun) piece about getting older. It's sure to make you smile! ”
- Borderline by10 Aug. 2023“ Siañez-De La O is a talented storyteller, and this play is no exception. The myths and tales interwoven into this piece give it a sense of magic and wonder which contrasts with the dismal reality of life on the border. This is really lovely work that should be produced! ”
- MR. HEMINGWAY by7 Aug. 2023“ Kautzman places dreamwork and memory to stage a lovely, sympathetic look at Hemingway's last months. This play is heartbreaking, educational, and creative. Check it out! ”
- The Anxiety of a Knuckleball Before the Plate by2 Aug. 2023“ A fun, quirky piece that would be easy to stage, even in an evening of short plays. There's lots for the actors and director to do here! ”
- Pulse by25 Jul. 2023“ A quick, informative nugget of history. You'll learn something important in ten minutes or less! ”
- AZTEC PIRATES & THE INSIGNIFICANCE OF LIFE ON MARS by9 Jul. 2023“ This piece is utterly haunting. Davila creates characters who are indisputably terrible people but he leaves them with just enough humanity that I still want them to be redeemed. It's a difficult line to tow, but he's done it well. This is a whirlwind, surreal look inside the head of someone with PTSD. It's complex, rich, and well worth your time. ”
- Ten Acrobats In An Amazing Leap Of Faith by4 Jul. 2023“ This piece seamlessly integrates dreams and naturalism in a moving family drama centered around the holidays -- in this case, Ramadan. The issues are relevant and the spiritual underpinnings are incredibly moving. This piece is well worth your time and should be produced again and again! ”
- A'nat Dittni by1 Jul. 2023“ Can ancient tales coexist with our postmodern world? This beautiful, heartbreaking play tackles that question fearlessly. It's a great example of the ten minute medium and is sure to leave the audience wanting more. Check it out! ”
- Why the Hell is it so Hard to Write a Recommendation on NPX? A Monologue by23 Jun. 2023“ So fun! This would be a great script to introduce someone to the NPX, or to playwriting in general. In fact, the next time my Grandma asks what exactly it is that I do, I might just hand her this play. Kudos to Salant for this delightful piece! ”
