RIGHT. ON. TARGET. The statistics that this play put forth gave me CHILLS. It's clear the play was written awhile ago but boy-oh-boy is it still relevant. A great piece for any theatre working with Protest Plays or Theatre Action Gun Control.

"Boys, girls, and ballet." A brilliant suicide drama made up of monologues filled with a variety of characters with their own ups, downs, thoughts, demands, fears, and selfishness. Sean Abley clearly has a talent for unique voices and characters and for writing one hell of a good story.

A magical and wonderfully funny-in-the-midst-of-tragedy play for 3 actresses! Also, for some reason I kept reading the mermaid as having a sort-of Minnesotan accent which only added to the level of dark humor onboard.

Gonzalez has written a hefty play in just 8 pages. Quiet, heart breaking, finding trust when trust has been broken-- a thought provoking piece about relationships and finding the strength to say what has gone unsaid.

This play is brutal, it is touching, disarming-- stunning. Gonzalez really cuts to the heart and the strength of a brother's love in LETTER TO MY BROTHER. A monologue that throws you into the ring and delivers jabs right to the feels. Gorgeous work.

I scared my cat off the couch laughing! What a delightful piece that is funny, a little spooky, and also gives great advice on how to handle racist/sexist dirt bags.

The thing I immediately love about this play is how shocking it is-- it BURSTS in like the damn Kool-Aid man and demands your attention! Women like SEX! Women like DICKS! Women are not shiny porcelain dolls that need to be put up on pedestals and only brought out for special occasions! This bold glittery truth bomb of a play would be a riot and an absolute stunner at any 10-minute festival.

What have we done? What did we do? We did nothing. We didn't do enough. Bublitz shows us beautifully in READING BABAR that even in death and in tragedy-- in the face of all that is breaking and gone-- that life finds a way. The young ones will judge us and hate us for the things that we could not save and we will see their rage and meet it with our own disappointment. But in their anger and our regret is the chance to do better next time. The chance for growth. Absolutely brilliant.

A monologue about a woman who really knows and values herself. I love ABENA and her six things-- a great monologue for a woman looking for something strong, confident, sexy, and direct!

We all become soldiers, partners in battle, when the threat of an active shooter enters into the mix. Asher Wyndham is such a treasure-- he highlights so well the new normal for students everywhere and their willingness to take that next step, to be the person who places themselves on the front lines of the blacktop. A great piece for theatres looking for pieces directly related to Gun Control or Gun Violence, or who are just looking for brilliant pieces of art that need to be staged immediately.
