    A truly hilarious set-up with very snappy dialogue. A clever twist on the 'fish out of water' tale... A fun and unconventional birthday party! Delightful and fabulous in every way!

    A terrific send-up of well-known tropes. It may be a parody of the genre, but it's also a solid example of 'noir,' featuring great lines, a femme fatale, and a double-cross, too!

    A little chaotic and very relatable, this wonderful script offers actors plenty to claw onto, both physically and through meaty dialogue. Plus, the ending is humorous perfection!

    An imaginative piece of sci-fi. I love its exploration of A.I. and ethics! A terrific 'what-if' scenario - horrifying and provocative!

    Knock, knock, knock... Who's there? This clever bit of horror genre subversion! Easy-to-stage and fun!

    Deftly handles a difficult ‘milestone’ with humor and grace. These siblings may approach their mother’s passing differently, but in the end come together to traverse whatever lies ahead. A fantastic play about family and its various personalities!

    A dynamic two-hander. Dark. Compelling. A horror story about true human evil, with page-turning revelations down its homestretch!

    ‘Tis the summer of Marvel, DC, and He-Man superheroes on the big screen, but in real life, heroes are less flashy and far more human. I really admire how this script shows the reluctance of these particular real-life do-gooders… how their selflessness doesn’t come easy… But, in the end, they take a stand for what is right and just, and change the lives of many while doing so!

    A stellar ‘creature feature,’ though one that isn’t played for scares. We don’t even get to see what’s in the box, but we get a sense of what it is through excellent dialogue and well-timed sound f/x. And the story’s human characters display a great deal of emotional depth, which is especially impressive given that this is essentially a very short script!

    The dialogue is terrific here and helps to highlight each character's personality and personal struggles. Humorous song lyrics add much-needed levity to a hard-hitting narrative! An engaging play about the true costs of war!
