    “ I just read the sample and couldn't stop laughing. The situation is absurd, the characters are quirky and the dialogue is oh so witty. I would love to be able to read the whole play, or better yet, see it produced. Well done! ”

  • WANDA: A MONOLOGUE WITH A TREADMILL by Asher Wyndham
    22 Jan. 2022

The characters have depth and individuality, The play is filled with humor and pathos, but what I found the most extraordinary is how fully realized all the production elements were presented.

    “ I saw the reading of this play at the Center for Jewish History. It is gripping, dramatic, and especially important for young people to see. In this play, Cooper shows us 2 sides of the same character at a pivotal moment in time, where life hangs in the balance. It is poetic, original and profound. ”

  • Hide and Seek by Lee R. Lawing
    23 Sep. 2021
    “ What a delightful spin on childhood friends. This comedy is jaded, endearing and full of surprises. Would be a great addition to festivals of 10 minute plays, especially in Valdez, Alaska, where bunnies roam free. Could also be a fabulous part of a festival devoted to the Easter holiday. ”
