WOW. HOLY SH*T. A truly tense, deliciously scary play about breaking dangerous patterns we learn from our parents.

Guarding
by Genevieve Simon
“
This is such a cool play...we never think about the fact that we employ TEENAGERS to be in charge of saving people's lives. I loved the ominous tone throughout, the mystery, and the glimpses we get of these kids' lives as they go through the motions of trying to keep people from accidentally killing themselves. Reminded me a bit of THE FLICK.

Before Evening Comes

Stunning, magical, and brutal. A not so subtle metaphor about how the U.S views and disposes of black bodies. This play is like music, and I can only imagine what it would be like to hear the beats in person.

the wolf you feed
by Darcy Parker Bruce
“
This is fantastic. Dark, creepy, and laugh out loud funny. I absolutely loved the world of this play and all of the characters. The wolf that wins is the one you feed.

Big Black Balloon
by Eljon Wardally

Loved this play. It's so rare to see eating disorders manifested onstage, ESPECIALLY a story that focuses on a male with body dysmorphia and exercise addiction. I loved how Henry and Cleo's insecurities manifest as imaginary friends. Because let's face it, who doesn't have a voice in their head sometimes?

Charlie's Waiting
by Mêlisa Annis

I love Melisa's writing. Louise and Kelly have a great relationship, but the day before their wedding, a mysterious stranger threatens to ruin everything. Really makes you question how well you know the person you love. Very suspenseful (and funny AF).

The New Galileos
by Amy Berryman
“
My heart was in my throat reading this. Amy has written a play with the highest of stakes-there are no easy choices, and this play is eerily plausible. We get to know the 3 imprisoned women well through flashbacks, and it makes the ending all the more harrowing. A very important play for this time.

The Mermaids' Parade
by Gina Femia
“
This play is magic. It's a punk fairytale set in Coney Island. Gina's characters and dialogue is always electric, and I loved how this play plays with myths and then debunks them. Funny and tragic and hopeful.

Living Creatures

A thought provoking, creepy play about grief, regret, and sacrifice. And consequences, OH BOY, the consequences...

spoons

This is a really beautiful, concise play about what happens when we let ourselves get too close. Or when we suddenly let someone in. I loved that this was a play about a transactional relationship between 2 strangers and it was never about sex and never went into romcom territory.
