  • Jennifer Kokai: Burst

    First of all, the premise of this play is absolutely fascinating. Rooted in a true, ongoing story, Bublitz looks at the thin line between the intense pursuit of a dream and megalomania. When corporate titans succeed, we forgive them all of their sins. But what do they have to do to get there? Do we forgive them if they don't succeed? Do we have different standards for women and men? Three excellent women characters make up this gripping, fast paced, drama.

  • Jennifer Kokai: The Impracticality of Modern-Day Mastodons

    This is a funny, wonder filled, magical play. I loved it on the page and I can only imagine what a delight it would be on stage and how much fun it would be for a production team to bring it to life.

    This might be my most favorite play I've read in five years. Smart, funny, insightful, thought provoking, and raw, my students and I adored it. Every theatre ought to do this play.

    Beautiful visceral writing. Each line is urgent. A compelling and disturbing play.

  • Jennifer Kokai: The Patron Saint of Losing Sleep

    I have loved this play from an earlier draft through to now. It's so smart and insightful and funny. It provides amazing roles for actors and the non-realistic structure is so fun for directors. Through scene work and a rehearsed reading my college students grew really attached to the play as well.
