  • Ruth Bader Ginsburg: A Living Document by Dianne Nora
    15 Jun. 2021
    “ I was so lucky to see a reading of this play by the talented team at Play-PerView and A Red Orchid Theatre of Chicago. Do not go into this show expecting a straight forward history lesson. Nora will take you on this journey through RBG’s life with jokes, stories, and even a dance or two. “Ruth Bader Ginsburg: A Living Document” is a compelling look at the human and not merely the icon and symbol she became. Well done! ”
  • How To Brew Tea: A One-Minute Play by Adam Richter
    1 Jun. 2021
    “ A funny and incredibly relatable moment between a parent and an adult child. A perfect one minute slice-of-life. ”
  • Weird Rabbit's Foot by Franky Gonzalez
    3 May. 2021
    “ A terrific darkly funny one-minute slice of life. Always love a good hypothetical situation. Now I want to see the picture... ”
  • Dear Neighbor by Allie Costa
    26 Apr. 2021
    “ Was fortunate able to hear Soundscape Theater's production of "Dear Neighbor." Costa has created a very fun piece that will speak to anyone who's lived in an apartment. From furniture moving to laundry room etiquette, Costa covers it all. Well done! ”
  • An Awkward Conversation in the Shadow of Mount Moriah by John Bavoso
    19 Apr. 2021
    “ In a time when we so often we see people using religion to justify horrible things, John Bavoso provides an clever spin on the Abraham & Isaac story. Packed with wit and a whole ton of heart, "Awkward Conversation" is a delightful conversation starter about faith, parenthood, and love, and would be a welcome addition to any short play festival. Well done! ”
  • Password: 2020 Escape Room (a 1-minute play) by Steven G. Martin
    5 Mar. 2021
    “ In just one minute, Martin crams all of 2020 into our heads at the rate of Neo learning Kung Fu in the Matrix. The play is a terrifying metaphor for people who believe things will magically improve because of a calendar page turn. It takes effort, a will to keep fighting, and maybe a little bit of luck. (P.S. Did they try "Dolly?") ”
  • Behind the Shed by Giselle Muise
    10 Feb. 2021
    “ In Behind the Shed, Giselle Muise lets us spend a few minutes with two childhood friends during their return home from college for the holidays. It’s a beautiful slice-of-life play. These characters are real and relatable and would be an absolute delight for actors to portray. I want to know what happens next! ”
  • In the dark times, will there also be singing? by Dianne Nora
    31 Jan. 2021
    “ I was so lucky to catch a reading of this play by the talented team at Un-American Blackbox. Set in an alternate America, Dianne Nora has written a play with a fascinating crew of compelling characters and a story that’ll keep you guessing. Dark, weird, thought-provoking and I loved every minute of it. Can’t wait to see where this play goes! ”
  • Eating Crayons by Ryan M. Bultrowicz
    30 Jan. 2021
    “ Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The crayon eaters.

    In ‘Eating Crayons,’ three characters “wax” philosophical about the times they munched on crayons as children. Add in a Chorus to add some ‘color’ commentary, and you get a nostalgic, funny, and imaginative ten-minute play! Well done! ”
  • Spilled Tea by Harper Lee
    30 Jan. 2021
    “ I was fortunate to hear a reading of Harper Lee’s “Spilled Tea” by Theatre Unmasked. Lee has written an beautifully honest portrayal of family and the individual struggle between ‘putting family first’ and ‘living your own life.’ ”
