  • Yellow Cardinal (a one-minute play) by Matthew Weaver
    26 Jun. 2020
    “ Very good, very funny, very truthful. ”
  • All Lives Matter...Except Yours by Chris Gacinski
    23 Jun. 2020
    “ This is absurd in the classic sense, and Chris Gacinski gets it going and doesn't let up, using rapier-like satire and dialogue that captures the moment for all of its outrageousness. If this is just the start, I am really looking forward to the finish. ”
  • Suddenly Rippling, Out and Up [a 1-minute play] by Steven G. Martin
    23 Jun. 2020
    “ This one hits home for me, being less than a month after I lost my Dad, and it captures everything about him. Unforgettable. ”
  • Seasons by George Sapio
    23 Jun. 2020
    “ For those of us who live in a climate where its changes are noted by the length of the day and the amount of rain, this play is a wonderful tonic to remind us of the wonders of the changes of seasons (as long as we can see it from a respectful distance). George Sapio's clever dialogue and fully relatable characters is the frosting on this cake. ”
  • First Impressions by Kevin King
    20 Jun. 2020
    “ This short piece may be about the title and what comes from them, but it leaves a lasting impression. Bravo, Kevin King. ”
  • The Cheese Board Incident by Molly Wagner
    18 Jun. 2020
    “ A nice character study that would make a great audition piece or a curtain-raiser for a festival. ”
  • Mother by Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn
    18 Jun. 2020
    “ A great play with a perfect ending. ”
  • The Greater and Lesser Edmunds of the World: a short play about bastards and birthright by Scott Sickles
    17 Jun. 2020
    “ Families are complicated, and blended and extended ones even more so. Scott Sickles takes a meeting between two half-brothers, and hilarity, reality, and literary history ensues. I cannot imagine anyone else taking this complicated story and making it work as well. ”
  • Beautiful Noises by Scott Sickles
    16 Jun. 2020
    “ A tender play about love and loss and remembering and cherishing. But it's also very honest in dealing with the regrets and the pain, which makes it all the more powerful. ”
  • Marilyn, Mom & Me by Luke Yankee
    16 Jun. 2020
    “ Full disclosure: I had the privilege of meeting Eileen Heckart (and doing a scene with her) at the Inge Festival, and I've known Luke Yankee for over twenty years. But this play reveals more about both of them and the enigmatic and illustrious Marilyn Monroe than I ever knew, and I'm grateful for it. The story, told as memory and recollection, brings these characters to life in ways that only someone who knew them and who knows so well how to write them. It is an intimate look into the very real life of legends and done beautifully. ”
