  • DOLPHIN KID: A MONOLOGUE (POOLSIDE) by Asher Wyndham
    22 Jul. 2022
    “ Asher's unique and sweet monologue delivers a story every bit as endearing as it is powerful, making it one of his best original monologues ever. This one-person dramatic play would work well with an evening of other plays for both high-school and college students. ”
  • Blooming Cactus by Sally Jane Kerschen-Sheppard
    28 Jun. 2022
    “ Prescription medication prices are forcing many elderly to risk going into Mexico for their pills. Many elderly gamble with their health by taking the chance with these drugs. Sally Jane has cleverly taken a serious subject and flipped it into a delightful comedy. Perfect roles for mature women (seniors). ”
  • BURNING LEAVES by Tom Rowan
    28 Jun. 2022
    “ I loved this play. As the storm overtakes Matt's life while he attempts to assist Jesse excel in school, he faces homophobia and rejection. Rowan's characters feel real and authentic. His take on "middle America" is reflective of my America. ”
  • The Brock Battle Show by Joseph Bardin
    28 Jun. 2022
    “ The Brock Battle Show takes a light look at the assumptions, and pressures of being a man, and what it means to be a man today. Bardin carefully addresses toxic masculinity, and the pressures of society on the definition of manliness in this quick short with two strong roles for men. The short is easy to stage and fun to produce. ”
  • Intermission by Joseph Bardin
    28 Jun. 2022
    “ Meta-theater short play at its best! Overall the short is darkly comic, but the audience gets short bits of relief with insightful writing on the challenges of marriage. The play is subtle and demands actors who understand subtext. ”
  • Iron Justice by Cody Goulder
    28 Jun. 2022
    “ This film noir parody subtly addresses gender difference as the writer struggles to find a new script. Goulder maintains a delicate equilibrium between the noir re-enactment and the "real" lives of the two characters. Goulder offers a short comedy which compliments noir classics in a quick play. Meaty roles for a short play. ”
  • The Exhibition by Thomas Gibbons
    27 Sep. 2021
    “ I LOVE this play. It changed my life. ”
