  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: How To Boil An Egg: A One-Minute Monologue

    Quite the twist for such a seemingly straightforward, short piece! Would really like to see this piece performed.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: The Chevelle

    A tense snapshot of the beginning of the end of a relationship. Anyone who has experienced a breakup will wince in recognition. Nicely done.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: InDependence Day

    This monologue is a web of clouded memories that slowly become clearer the more we hear, the end result being a once-overly-dependent woman having the epiphany she's been waiting for. Now ready to bravely seek the self-love and self-ownership she deserves, we cheer her on.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Partita - A Monologue

    A lovely reflection on the grief one experiences with the loss of a colleague due to coronavirus. Like soldiers, it seems, we might all end up with some survivor's guilt, and this monologue plays all the right notes in exploring how one might come to terms with that.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: ECHOLOCATION

    Oof. This play hit me HARD. Here (points to chest) and here (points to head).

    Beautiful. Raw. Important.

    Produce this!

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Closet Cat (monologue)

    A purrfect reflection on quarantine from the feline perspective. Touching and humorous.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Speed Dating?

    Rapid-fire dialogue immerses us in the world of speed-dating (and perhaps dating in general). Illuminating and on point. DING.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: The Pity and the Sorrow (monologue)

    A fun and twisty monologue that left me wanting to know more! Good roommates really are so hard to find!

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Genesis

    A beautiful, stunning piece. I would love to experience this in performance, because this isn't a piece you only "see" but one you take in with all of your being and all of your senses. Really magnificent.

  • Elisabeth Giffin Speckman: Are you ready to order?

    I enjoyed seeing this monologue performed during Fat Turtle Theatre Company's Quaranteeny Monologue Festival. It is a great piece to showcase an actress's dramatic AND comedic talents, with a wonderful twist at the end.
