  • The Underpants Godot by Duncan Pflaster
    3 Feb. 2020
    “ This is a smart, fun, and provocative show, which both deeply honors and hilariously spoofs Beckett. It's also a wickedly blunt love letter to the theater and to comedy in general, telling some hard truths that you may not hear anywhere else. I've seen this show more than once and would see it again. It's had quite a few productions and deserves many more. ”
  • Garters by Natalie Zutter
    3 Feb. 2020
    “ Love this play! It's got everything. Knights, rogues, spies, magic, action, romance, riddles and fun characters who live outside their expected roles. It deserves more productions and now seems like the perfect moment for this story. ”
  • A Shared Mammary by Lindsay Partain
    4 Jan. 2020
    “ Hilarious physical comedy leavening snappy banter in a fresh situation. I imagine this would be a ton of fun for the actors as well as the audience. ”
  • Picasso in Paris by Rich Rubin
    30 Dec. 2019
    “ I was lucky to see a staged reading of Picasso in Paris at Gulfshore Playhouse and was much impressed with Rubin's exploration of these larger than life characters. This play makes them wholly relatable, lovable, hate-able, human and giants all at once. If you love a "warts and all" biography like I do, you will thoroughly appreciate this script. ”
  • The Last Ballgame by Rand Higbee
    29 Dec. 2019
    “ The last line of this play got me, and took the story beyond these enjoyable characters and into every baseball fan's heart. In an entertaining 10 minutes, the Last Ballgame shows us something compelling about America's pastime. ”
  • Climate Change by Philip Middleton Williams
    29 Dec. 2019
    “ This play cracked me up. In less than a page, Williams launches a volley of zingers that will tickle audiences, and be doubly enjoyable for people who know Florida or who fight over the thermostat. Easy to produce, not a beat wasted. ”
  • GRANNY LOLA: A MONOLOGUE by Asher Wyndham
    29 Dec. 2019
    “ I believe many senior actresses would get a ton of fun and satisfaction out of presenting this monologue, with its many opportunities to be surprising, edgy, caring, wild and wise all at once. It's a compelling snapshot of a multilayered woman. ”
  • The Inexplicable Chaos Factor of Mia Gregory by Emily Hageman
    28 Dec. 2019
    “ Beautiful script. It expresses weighty moments with a nimble touch so that the momentum never flags. A compelling exploration of mental health and the rules of friendship. Somehow Hageman also makes it a fresh and entertaining love letter to the theater told by someone who hates theater. ”
  • IN TRAINING by Rachael Carnes
    18 Jul. 2019
    “ If all this play did was give you 10 pages of crackling, absurd humor for actors to dig into, that would be more than enough. But Carnes also deftly and accurately paints for us, with that absurdity, the horror of the working world. And to top it off, she gives us an object lesson or three concerning the exercise of power. So much crammed into this absurdly easy-to-produce, creepy and hilarious ten minute play. ”
  • Frailty, Thy Name by Scott Sickles
    7 Apr. 2019
    “ The pivotal choices that Gertrude makes just offstage in Hamlet are here given a spirited examination. Her fall and redemption make for meaty drama and a stunning confrontation scene by Ophelia. Sickles has written a thoughtful and fun "what if?" that fits pretty snugly with the Hamlet we know. ”
