A fun, fast-paced imagining of the Underworld. Fans of Greek mythology will find many humorous treasures in this piece, and all are sure to enjoy it.

The baby steps of a new relationship are brilliantly redefined here by Williams, who in just a short 60 seconds can put a smile on my face and pull at my heartstrings with this tender, humorous look at dating in a pandemic.

Hibbard has crafted this monologue so that it works perfectly for both virtual and live performance, which is no easy task but an important one for playwrights to achieve these days. RON is a sort of Everyman, or who many of us hope every man will be: someone who wants to atone for past misdeeds and change the world for the better of all, planet Earth included. I hope to see this in performance.

An understated and beautiful tribute to lives led and lost.

Rinkel provides a slice of life in the Starbucks line, complete with a treat at the end.

Great little piece for a short play or 1 min play festival. Jack and Caroline find themselves in a situation that, apart from the virus existing, many might envy!

Good fit for a spunky actress, filled with moments of defiance, humor, vulnerability, and power! I could see teen actresses especially enjoying this piece for performance or as audition material.

Precious and oh-so-satisfying. A near perfect 60 seconds between a king and a princess, but more importantly, a man and his granddaughter.

ALL. OF. THIS. What a brilliant monologue for a powerful and feisty woman. A winning piece of writing that captures the post-partum experience and champions it.

The privilege was MINE to read this satire that, as a female adjunct instructor, hits a little too close to home! Filled with witty exchanges and one-liners, I can only conclude that irony is NOT dead after all!
