  • i believe in a republic in which money has a great deal to say. by Julia Specht
    3 May. 2020
    “ SO DELICIOUS I WOULD EAT IT UP OFF THE FLOOR. Hilarious, brilliant take on America and the Gilded Age with a wealth of material for comic actresses. Includes beautiful, heartbreaking monologues amid the laugh out loud dialogue. ”
  • I'll Be Here by Philip Middleton Williams
    3 May. 2020
    “ A beautiful play that explores death and loss from a quiet, serene place, and, in doing so, achieves a truthful glimpse at this father/son duo and the many like them. Could be especially lovely with the right lighting and sound design. ”
  • Once upon a Train (A One-Minute Play) by Marcia Eppich-Harris
    3 May. 2020
    “ A play that makes you double-think about what the strangers around you are going through, particularly on public transit. I was lucky to see a production during Fat Turtle Theatre Company's Quaranteeny Play Festival and found that its subtleties played well on a digital platform. Would enjoy seeing this in a more traditional production in the future! ”

  • Tag (one minute version) by Mark Harvey Levine
    3 May. 2020
    “ Yet another incredible premise from Levine, whose plays tend to make me gasp and say "why didn't I think of that?" Plays well in the virtual age of theatre during COVID-19, and I'm sure would be brilliant on a more traditional stage as well. ”

  • That Moment When ... by Steven G. Martin

  • The Brain Thief by Tom Horan
    26 Apr. 2020
    “ I was able to see a reading of this play and would love to see it in production.
