  • Philip Middleton Williams: Of Course I'm Right

    No, you can never get in the last word in an argument on the internet.

    Yes, you can.

    No, you can't.

    Neener, neener.

    Adam Richter nails it.

    Yes, he does. So there.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: The Unboxing Match

    I can't think of anyone I know who won't identify with the dilemma Mark faces when he opens the box containing what he hopes is the way to the "new" him, even those of us who buy their clothes from the next aisle over from Auto Parts. Adam Richter has given us a plausible and thoroughly relatable situation of self-doubt and budding confidence, battling with not just his own self-perceptions but those of the inner self. Add to that deft back-and-forth dialogue and this is a piece that would be so much fun to watch.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: I Love You More Than I Can Bear

    Well, there are a lot of things I could say about this short fun piece and use every pun I can think of, but I'll leave it to you, dear reader, to let John Busser show you the bear maximum. This is a charmer of a rom-com with plenty of ursine humor and suspense -- can you bear it? -- and cover all the tracks.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: Weird Rabbit's Foot

    There are some conversations you would rather not overhear, but if you do, let Franky be the one to memorialize it.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: One Night at the Golden Boot

    This is a fun and dare I say whimsical look at the unpredictable path of two people trying to figure each other out, aided and abetted by a gnomishly clever bartender who has no qualms about breaking down barriers. The meta element adds fun and enhances the story by laying out how the artifice of the stage can actually be the most honest way to break the barriers we set up.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: The Prince's Richard

    There’s a lot of fun wordplay in this witty comic piece, and it goes by like lightning. Jarred Corona never lets up, and doesn’t let a pun get away. Enjoy it!

  • Philip Middleton Williams: The Early Flight

    This has all the makings of a great screwball comedy/farce, and it delivers them in a witty and fun way. Even if you think you know the outcome, you will keep going because it builds so effectively and works like all good comedies should. Oh, and I want one of those milkshakes.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: Pinch My What?

    No matter what the circumstances, be it comedy, drama, or rom-com, Larry Rinkel never fails to give us characters that are fully grown, relatable, charming in their own way, and thoroughly enjoyable to watch as he puts them through their journey. In this case, Nick's plans for his big break -- even if it means blowing off Valentine's Day dinner with the ever-patient (if not suffering) Josh -- go up the pipe, but somehow they manage to salvage both the dinner and their relationship. It's a charmer and deserves many productions.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: The Snake on the Steering Wheel

    This is a tale of love in a way that truly conveys the deep connection two people have even as they brace themselves for slipping away and apart. In this short moment, we see how much love and commitment can strengthen the bond. A wonderful, funny, heart-tugging piece.

  • Philip Middleton Williams: Box of Joy

    This has all the makings of a meet-cute sitcom, but Ken Preuss deftly avoids the cliches by giving us two fully-developed characters in a very short time. Tess and Kip's repartee and their attractiveness makes this a joyful ten minutes that makes you hope to see more from them and cheer them on.
