  • A HUG FOR MATTHEW WEAVER
    8 Sep. 2020
    Another Matthew Weaver play! And this one's a sweet tribute to the support playwrights can offer each through the medium of a play. May we all be lucky enough to dream about Matthew Weaver offering us support when we're going through a tough time writing a play.
  • Game Night
    7 Sep. 2020
    A sobering tale of a game night for four friends—two couples—that gets out of hand. Cathro creates believable characters who remind us that "truth or dare" can be a dangerous undertaking when not everyone present knows all the facts. A nice suspense builder that will give four actors plenty to play with!
  • Hitchers
    25 May. 2020
    What happens when Danley and Purcell put two serial killers in a car together and get them talking shop? Pure comedy! A completely unexpected, off the wall two hander that will give you nightmares once you've stopped laughing.
  • Goldilocks Gets Adopted
    11 May. 2020
    Madden gives us the next installment of the Goldilocks story. And it's an epic face off between Goldilocks and her new brother, Baby Bear. Can they really make a go of it as siblings? Not to mention all the problems that go with sharing a room. A nice twist on the well loved fairy tale.
  • A Unicorn on 7th and Nicollet
    2 Apr. 2020
    This very funny and charming short stars Mary Tyler Moore and a unicorn. The unicorn may be a bit of a jerk, but Mary has never met a unicorn she couldn't tame, even if she does work in television. An inspired script, and so vividly imagined that it's tempting to hang out on Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis just to see if Mary and her unicorn return one day.
  • Top Shelf Tolstoy
    1 Apr. 2020
    Top Shelf Tolstoy tells the story of a sharp-witted, off beat encounter at a small local library. Maximillian Gill's wistful vision of a place where you can find both vodka martinis and Anna Karenina is sure to be a hit with playgoers—or indeed anyone who likes the idea of a library with more than just books on offer!
  • A Stitch Here or There: A Sock Tragedy in One Act
    24 Mar. 2020
    Have you ever wondered about the life (or lack of it) of the odd sock? The one that never matches? Cotton's search for her missing match quickly turns into existential musings on everything from lost mittens to dryer lint. Hemphill's charming short will give you an original take on these dilemmas, as actors become sock puppets (and more) and enact the whole drama. Warmly recommended.
  • The Feral Child
    4 Jun. 2019
    A great situation created by a writer who has a great gift for comedy. But this is not just a play for laughs. If you met a child who thought she was a tiger, how would you teach her to be a human? And should you even try? Actors will have enormous fun with the characters that Rand Higbee has created. A timeless script I confidently predict will be a hit with audiences everywhere.
  • Back Cover
    27 Apr. 2019
    This is a remarkable play that manages to deal with a range of life changing events in just one act. Kudos to equally remarkable playwright Emily Hageman for creating a heart warming, yet also heart wrenching drama that audiences, young and old, will relate to. Loved it!
  • JANINE: A MONOLOGUE WITH A FANNY-PACK
    27 Apr. 2019
    Janine and her pink tee shirt. Janine with her grandma's fanny pack. Janine standing up to the bullies who don't get that she is a strong, confident girl who knows exactly who she is, and why it's important to honor her grandma and wear her fanny pack. Love this girl and her attitude, and I hope this gets performed in middle schools around the country!
