  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Gee, Your Butt Smells Terrific

    Hilarious. I knew this piece would be enjoyable from the title, but I didn't realize just how much. So much comedy in 1 short minute- and what is sure to be an absolute blast for the actors and the audience!

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: DRIVE

    Lovely piece for an older actress with gumption and a desire to not give up the driver's seat quite yet.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Animal Kingdom (a one-minute play)

    A beautiful piece. I don't want to give anything away by saying more, but what a tribute to the "humanity" of the animal kingdom.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Linda (Monologue for a Latina)

    A beautiful work with such a clear voice, it jumps out and grabs me from the page. Delightful, engaging, and heartfelt, this is a stunning piece for a Latinx actress.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: And Try NOT To Enjoy Your Stay

    This piece would be a blast to perform and experience! Packed with puns and wit, this is a monologue (complete with intepreters!) that is sure to be a favorite.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: The Giraffe in the Room (Monologue)

    Sellem has written what so many have felt and are feeling in this beautifully rich piece. I love the stream-of-consciousness and realness of Jupiter, who isn't afraid to show off her vulnerable side. I love that Jupiter knows that she doesn't know things, like how long quarantine will last, and isn't afraid to show it. I love even more that Jupiter isn't ashamed--or afraid--to hope for the best, or to look towards tomorrow as a new, and maybe better, day. Well done!

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Only You Can Reject Jelly Beans

    A universal piece that is at once a rejection of being like everyone else and also a quest for companionship and understanding, this is a gentle, enjoyable piece.

    And now I also want jelly beans.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Urn

    Well-crafted and intense, I would love to see this play and experience it in all of its elements -- sound, space, light, bodies, and darkness. It is sure to be especially powerful when produced.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: shake it, baby

    I loved this piece. Jordan Elizabeth Henry has a gift for richly describing the action with just the right touch of humor so that the play materializes in front of the reader's eyes and transforms 60 seconds into a golden, theatrical minute.
