  • O.B.O. [a monologue]

    I enjoyed Martin's comedy ten-minute plays so I wanted to try his dramas, and I am pleased to say it's just as good. This is a real gut-punch. He wrings just as much drama and brutality out of an estate sale as you could out of a murder or worse. I love when a few pages can produce so much emotion.

    Steven Martin has made a delightful PG Wodehouse-esque play - snappy, eloquent dialogue and ridiculous characters whose inconsequential responsibilities mean the world to them. Fast and funny but with truth, it's all you could ask for in a ten-minute piece.
  • Bound by Truth (Full-length Historical Drama)

    A progressive take on a critical point in history whose messages are still relevant today, and brought out subtly and beautifully by the playwright. Sheila Rinear's characterizations are deep, and the engaging story and staging would work equally well for a prestige production or an educational piece done by schools.
