    Funny, honest, and smart as all of Osmundsen's pieces are. I love how he is unafraid to dig into the good, the bad, and the crappy. Nobody is perfect, nobody is a hero--and people are just people, even when they are faced with a dystopian landscape. A great piece that paints a future I don't want at all, but one that might happen.
  • The Last Hurrah

    Sweet, honest, and sincere. I love these two characters, they feel so real. They are so respectful towards each other, and the play is rich with their shared history. If only all break ups could be like this!

    Beautiful, powerful, ugly, frightening, dark. You can't look away from this play. It's masterful, gutting, and revealing. Amazing work.
  • SPEED DATING IN PARADISE (from the TAPAS COLLECTION)

    A sweet, smart ten minute play that would be a pleaser at any festival. Well-written and very tongue in cheek. A quick, fun read!

    Powerful, unique, and in need of performance. I'd love to see this staged, and I know it would be incredibly important and amazing to see.
  • Not Really (Little Star)
    25 Jun. 2020
    A truly remarkable piece about grief. It's so honest and so beautiful and just gut-wrenching. I love how courageously Malone has tackled this difficult topic with so much truth, care, and love. It's a wonderful play, and very healing.
  • Disinfect the People

    A hilarious, super timely play about everything that's going on. I swear, if only it was this easy to get everyone back on the right track, I would have picked up the stain remover a long time ago! The dialogue is fast and funny, and Nicole and Luciana are two heroes you really want to cheer for!
  • TO HISTORY/To Whom It May Concern -- ONE: War/Paint

    Powerful, striking poetry. This piece needs to be seen and heard by many, many audiences. Truly remarkable.

    There are no clear answers in this play, and that's what I love about it. There's so much pain between these two characters, so much spoken and so much unspoken. It's a truly aching play, and a masterful piece of realistic theater.
  • Why Didn't Kalinda Just Kill Nick?

    I am literally living for this play. A hilarious slice of life which asks the question that ANYONE WHO HAS EVER WATCHED THE GOOD WIFE HAS ASKED. Seriously. SERIOUSLY. Do not get me started on the ice cream scene. Oh no, this recommendation turned into me ranting about my own opinions. POINT IS, Craig-Galván is an absolutely delightful writer and I love this little slice of life. And on another note, I would like an answer to the question this play poses.
