    A tribute to passion and coming to better understand the people around you who are different yes but still may hold truths that need to be heard and processed.
  • The Year the Padres Won the Pennant
    6 May. 2021
    Saw an audio production of this play last night as part of the Crafton Hills College New Play Festival. It brought back a lot of memories for me as my Dad was a Cubs fan. Weintraub plays off the intimacy of a personal relationship with that of a team and a person's love for a team and the collapse of both is is very poignant and heartbreaking to witness.
  • Bottle Episode

    Some same fire, others say ice. This is a beautiful ode to life and extinction and choosing the best friends possible that have your back and every other part of you when the end does arrive in whatever form it takes.
  • The People You Meet in Heaven

    What a great one-minute play. A party game turned into the perfect set-up with just the right conclusion. Spot on!
  • I Love You More Than I Can Bear
    4 May. 2021
    A funny and endearing love story about being the real you for the person you're most into. I love Busser's humor and this play is sweet like honey and that's never a bad thing!
  • Nurturing the Crone (Monologue)
    3 May. 2021
    I had the great fortune of seeing part of this play performed just tonight as part of the Roland Tec's Some1Speaking Monologue Monday and I tell you I was blown away by the performance, but also by the words which hit to the gut of aging and what you can do with your life and the importance of just to just live every minute and every second as if they may be your lasts. I am looking forward to reading this entire play after seeing the monologue tonight!
  • What A Friend We Have In Satan: A Monologue
    3 May. 2021
    This title called to me for many reason but one of them is I love plays that include gods and goddesses and devils and all the like, but in the era of Trump who was nothing but the Christian Anti-Christ like no other one has been and the Christians ate him up just like the Bible foretells happening. McLindon's Satan offers salvation like no one has against all the so-called "Christians" in this world and I for one would be raising my hand to join this army. Besides I've always been a fan of the heat anyway.
  • A WITNESS
    3 May. 2021
    I was lucky to see a scene from this beautiful play read that one scene grabbed me and I knew that this play would be one that I would love. I love Henry's writing and I love that you can say so much in so little dialogue and that is a talent that I don't have and Henry does. This play is about coming to terms with one own's mortality, but also about making the most of what the gods have dealt each of us and to be a witness for all the others that exist here and now.
  • Egg Timer
    1 May. 2021
    This is one funny play and one that that draws on a very real danger of letting Social Media dictated your happiness, your sadness and your thoughts in general. For it's simplistic set up, Egg Timer delivers a real punch and wake-up call for so many things in a woman's life for sure, but also for all humans.
  • Aunt Zelda's Painting
    30 Apr. 2021
    Stolen art is always a fun plot point to work with and McClain does a funny job with this one, what with a museum like house, and the family and the pawn shop employees all coming clean and baring their souls, this had the fun feel of Arsenic and Old Lace and that feeling carries all the way through to a perfect ending.
