  • A FAVOUR by Paul Smith
    4 Jan. 2024
    “ Chance meetings occur on a daily basis all around us ,and those people, if we let them, can really offer a moment of comfort that we need at that time or to stick to our resolve that may be faltering. Paul gives us one chance meeting which will lull you into a state of complacency until the final scene which will leave you breathless. ”

  • Baby by D. S. Burrows
    2 Jan. 2024
    “ Knowing that your partner will stand beside you through thick or thin and for better or worse is just something that is written into the by-laws of any relationship. Baby puts it all on the line with a couple who have gone to get an abortion and the decisions made put an entirely different spin on the situation and relationship. Great two-hander!

  • Dinkers Taming Bangers by Kim E. Ruyle
    24 Dec. 2023
    “ To dink or not to dink. That is the question in this modern, and very funny, take on The Taming of The Shrew all woven into the "It" sport of our day, Pickleball. Ruyle takes us on a pleasant journey of discovery of whether or not old dogs can be taught new tricks. The best moments come in the friendships between the four characters, their dialogue so real and their outcome one that we are all care to see play out. ”
  • A Friend by Ruben Carbajal
    24 Dec. 2023
    “ What an amazing short play by Carbajal! It speaks about the darkness that dementia can bring and pain it can cause for all people involved. Well done. ”
  • What Ever Happened to Baby Jessica? by Tanya O'Debra
    23 Dec. 2023
    “ Americans are suckers for the flash in the pan survival stories that will pop up throughout any given year. I remember Baby Jessica and followed that drama unfold. Maybe it makes us feel better about ourselves that it's not us experiencing this horror and we can sit at home and feel safe that it's not us or not us trapped in a mine or trapped on a mountain somewhere. Plus, this monologue is darkly funny. ”
  • That Holiday Feeling by J.E. Hibbard
    22 Dec. 2023
    “ No doubt we have all felt a little like Mary around the holiday season. Everywhere you look, there are organizations collecting for the greater good or so you think so like the grinch your heart grows just a little each year and like Mary, you feel you can make just a tad bit of difference. Great play for this time of the year but really the message is one that would fit the whole year long. ”
  • Slow Burn by Harper Caroline Lee
    21 Dec. 2023
    “ Relationships are hard and how much harder can it be if a gang leader is a relationship with a police officer. This was the featured play of the day for me and so happy that it was. What I liked best about this piece is that the dialogue was so matter of fact you could have been listening to any relationship that is figuring itself out and all of the pitfalls and mountains that two people will maneuver to find that bit of heaven. ”
  • world is a fuck by Christian Flynn
    20 Dec. 2023
    “ All of us have that young person's spirit in us--that spirit that used to fight and be on the side of all that was right for the world and change for the people in the world who were in the wrong and all of us have that moment where we realize that the fight is gone or died (literarily and figuratively) a little and we've given into that Kool aide that and realize it's we're done to the last few of us still holding tight to the fight. I agree with Rubio's assessment about weddings. They do blow ass. ”
  • Apart by Rachel Luann Strayer
    19 Dec. 2023
    “ Wow! The lyrical nature of this play is so strong beautiful and the events that unfold so very real to so many people who are going through this with aging parents and those who are suffering from Alzheimer's and who are lost in the future but still finding bits of the past that all but overwhelm those are caring for somebody that's no longer the same or ever will be again. So glad this was my featured play of the day. ”
