  • Adult in the Room by Greg Vovos
    21 May. 2024
    “ Terrifyingly real and tragic; my stomach tied itself in knots while I read "Adult in the Room." Greg Vovos shows the fruits of repeated inaction in the face of horrific events. The characters' rage and ineffectual resistance feel like the most natural conclusions in a world where gun violence in schools is taken for granted. ”
  • Tag (one minute version) by Mark Harvey Levine
    21 May. 2024
    “ Do people grow up? Mark Harvey Levine's fun, sly comedy suggests the answer is yes ... and no. "Tag" would be great fun to see performed. ”
  • KNICKERS by Alan Kilpatrick
    18 May. 2024
    “ Alan Kilpatrick has created a wonderful labyrinth with this one-act comedy. "Knickers" starts simply but gets into a twist with all the conflicts and the language and the plot turns Kilpatrick creates. It's very verbal and the language is used to wonderful effect with threats and lies and reversals topped on top of one another. ”
  • HYGIENE by Alan Kilpatrick
    18 May. 2024
    “ Alan Kilpatrick has created a very funny comedy, making fun of bad people and their stupidity. Pretension and self-importance are neatly burst in mere minutes, and audiences will enjoy that very much. ”
  • @mangusmuscle: A FITNESS INFLUENCER MONOLOGUE by Asher Wyndham
    17 May. 2024
    “ Asher Wyndham's beautiful monologue shows the many facets of a man's strength, from physical to emotional, from bodybuilding and fitness to -- even more important in Wyndham's monologue -- his love for his family and his stance against cyberignorance. I would love to see "@mangusmuscle" in performance. ”
  • Please, Don't Go by Neil Radtke
    17 May. 2024
    “ Audiences will be an emotional wreck after watching "Please, Don't Go." This is a very well-crafted one-minute drama. ”
  • An Audience of One by Michael C. O'Day
    16 May. 2024
    “ A challenging yet wholly satisfying story with thoughtful, heightened use of language. "An Audience of One" needs to be produced far and wide; audiences will be moved and will remember it a long time. ”
  • The Mascot Always Pings Twice by Michael C. O'Day
    16 May. 2024
    “ I love this blistering satire against corporations and their use of marketing and advertising to fleece the public, and what responsibility really means.

    It's got visuals and references galore to drive home its point. It's also genuinely funny and thoughtful about responsibility and selling out.

    I hope "The Mascot Always Pings Twice" gets a lot more productions, and I want to be in the audience to watch. ”
  • Barbie Throws a House Party! by Catherine Weingarten
    14 May. 2024
    “ I love Catherine Weingarten's parody. Barbie is a dick, Skipper is a hero, and the Barbieverse is ridiculously twee (a jacuzzi with water that "is legit pink chocolate"?!). A lot of silliness and fun balanced with thoughtfulness and theme. ”
  • Zen Pizza by Jim Moss
    11 May. 2024
    “ I love this comedy. I was hooked by the phrase "pizza delivery monk" in the summary, and then Jim Moss adds layers I never knew I needed in a comedy, including Zen puzzles, mystical and random notes on a flute, grifting, and (perhaps) reaching a next level of existence. I hope "Zen Pizza's" production history rapidly expands. ”
