    In typical Ken Weitzman fashion, full of theatricality and verve, he crafts a story about a woman whose fascination with Shakespeare led to some of the most important cryptology discoveries ever made. I couldn't put this script down. It's at times stranger than fiction, and it paints a vivid portrait of a figure that may otherwise be lost in history.

    "Sympathizer" deals with volatile social issues in ways that constantly surprise and force you to challenge your preconceptions. It is written with the freshness and vitality of youth and offers an array of layered characters for actors to sink their teeth into. I'm excited to see this play produced.

    A brilliant black comedy full of twists and surprises, "The Implicate Order" looks at how the many ways Americans obfuscate their own perception of violence. At times serious, though often side-splittingly funny, the play features characters who are unique and well-crafted. A highly recommended read and aching to be produced.

    An utterly original look at a largely forgotten moment in history. Crystal expertly weaves together threads of science, war, compassion, and regret. Highly recommended.

    A road trip play. A family play. A comedy about loss and life and self-actualization. I had the pleasure of attending a reading of this play at the Colorado New Play Summit and laughed myself silly.

    It's rare I read a play that hits me on so many levels. The comedy is spot on, the way the characters' inner lives are revealed through dialogue and body language, the emotional punch of the second act. And don't get me started on the bravura display of the online message thread. Wow.

    A play that keeps you guessing from the jump and keeps going into surprising new directions with every scene. A fantastic drama of relationships with a sci-fi edge.

    Contains one of the most excruciating (and compelling) scenes I've seen in almost any play. A story that really digs into how class is a force that works on all of us, all the time. Highly recommended.

    Scathing, funny, nasty... what a fun read. Bold, vivid characters. A "ugh, this hurts" look at what it means to be a playwright in the American theatre today.
