  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Big Black Giraffe

    This is such a fun piece! It is joyfully cataclysmic and while it would be a challenge to produce, creative direction and design could really make this piece a spectacle to behold and experience.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Copley: Boy with a Squirrel (Boston, MFA)

    A beautifully immersive, ekphrastic monologue with lovely turns of phrase and haunting questions that will stick with you long after the monologue is finished. A fantastic exploration of the human bond and need for art, and whether or not art ever needs us back.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: The Boy Who Cried Dragon

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Chiffon's Plea (monologue)

    A satisfyingly silly piece showcasing sibling grudges that plays with language (so many S words! Spot them all!) in a fun and unique way while also illuminating the hurt and heart that can lie beneath the surface of childhood traumas.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: MY SILVER MIRROR (a monologue)

    A beautifully crafted monologue full of heart, charm, and poetic realizations, this piece was a treat to read from start to finish. What a wonderful piece for an actress in her 60s that showcases the fact that womanhood and life and love don't disappear after 40. Brava!

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Doing You a Favor

    A compelling, challenging monologue that leaves me wanting to know more about the situation and characters at hand.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: TO TOUCH

    A shy, small glimpse into a relationship struggling to survive the distance COVID19 has created between them and the creative ways the human spirit has found to counteract these gulfs.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: The Trouble with Mustard Greens

    A beautiful monologue that deftly weaves current offstage action, memory, and the power of cooking (and recipes) to represent so many aspects of our lives: history, culture, love. A wonderful tribute and a great piece for an actress.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: The Amazing Adventures of Dr. Wonderful (And Her Dog!)

    "OH MY DOG" this is wonderful.

    Charming, funny, and oh so sweet, I can practically picture every page as a superbly sensational, science-errific, theatrical experience. If it's this much fun to read, imagine how FUNtastic this would be onstage!

    (Offstage voices: Ahhhhhhhhh!)
