  • VALERIE: A COSPLAY MONOLOGUE by Asher Wyndham
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ Wyndham takes us on an emotional journey as he reveals what costumes can't mask. Valerie finds she is the superhero in her own life, and doesn't need to role-play to find her power. ”
  • Hedda the Hopper by Pam Munter
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ Desperation can lead us to make inappropriate choices and can highlight our ineptitude at handling life's most difficult challenges. Munter effectively brings all this to the fore with immense humor and absurdity, making Hedda the Hopper a surprising and wonderfully ridiculous romp. ”
  • Make Way by Dave Osmundsen
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ Osmundsen has created an amazing and horrifying world in which people must choose thought over words. In a short amount of stage time, Make Way gives us a glimpse into a book-burning dystopia, where demanded allegiance to authority is far more destructive of souls than it is to physical matter. ”
  • Whisper into the Ground by Olivia Haller
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ Haller offers a great perspective on how outrage can grow snowball in the social media era, where we all feel the need to express an opinion, even when we are not in control of the facts. Using a chorus of voices, Haller comments on the disconnect between reality and rage in a way that makes the audience better understand the helplessness of those whose voices cannot compete with the volume and speed in which messages travel. ”
  • Inevitable by Bethany Dickens Assaf
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ A visual and verbal treat! This play demonstrates Dickens's sharp wit, comedic timing, and inventive imagination. Great fun! ”
  • EGG IN SPOON by Rachael Carnes
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ Carnes writes about sexuality from the perspective of four generations of women gathered at a baby shower for the youngest among them. The setting provides a delicate counterpoint to the trauma of a near-future scenario in which repression runs rampant. Egg in Spoon provides great lines and distinctive characters as it explores the troubling possibility of what could happen if our current leadership fails women.

  • A Semicolon is a Double by Larry Rinkel
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ A semicolon can join two closely related independent clauses; Rinkel uses this concept to join two closely related yet independent people in a refreshing look at teenage anxiety over orientation. There are moments of great pathos punctuated with punchlines that will stick with you. ”
  • Her Too by Debra A. Cole
    30 Sep. 2019
    “ This slice-of-life play demonstrates through a multi-generational perspective just how pervasive sexual violence is in our culture, and how survivors deal with the aftermath in ways that don't always make sense to those around them. In a gentle yet powerful way, Cole provides a solid exploration of an issue that is on our minds. ”
  • Blur in the Rear View by Aleks Merilo
    9 Aug. 2019
    “ Jealousy, regret, atmosphere, and secrets -- they're all here in this dynamic one-act. The play gives young actors some very meaty substance in powerful roles. Blur in the Rear View has incredible dynamic tension -- it feels like an elastic that is about to snap. ”
  • MEMOIRS OF A FORGOTTEN MAN by D.W. Gregory
    9 Aug. 2019
    “ There is so much to admire in this piece. I particularly enjoyed the seamless motion between past and present, memory and deception. With masterful structure and theatricality, Memoirs opens up conversations about power and control, and the danger of self-deception. Very relevant to today's political climate and a wonderfully suspenseful play. Intricate, well-paced, and exquisite! ”
