    This is such a fun and affecting play! The characters are so well-drawn -- actors will love these roles. And what an inspired setting, one of those cheesy but beloved "corporate" chain restaurants (but here turned up to absurd levels). Yes, you'll laugh out loud but don't be surprised if that laugh catches in your throat.

    My, this delightfully unique play grabs you in its first few seconds! And what unfolds is a mashup of ruthless violence, workplace comedy and supernatural love story. Actors would have a blast bringing these characters to life (or death).
  • The Good Seats
    1 May. 2022
    This is a delicious play that brings the politics, intrigue and gossip of practically every community to vivid and hilarious life. Feeny-Williams cleverly creates an entire chaotic poolside environment -- including a hunky lifeguard, misbehaving children and hapless husbands -- primarily through the dialogue of two women. Speaking of those two characters, what bonkers fun they are!

    Those "famous cooking people" can't compete with Dan! Or can they? This is a delightfully clever play in which the action takes place offstage as much as it does onstage. It's fun to see Claire become more tightly wound as each scene progresses -- it makes the payoff that much more delicious!

    This may be a short play but it resonates for a long time. My stomach dropped when I realized what was actually happening. Feeny-Williams has focused on those in-between moments, gentle but tragic.

    What a satisfying short play! Helicopter parenting, the fragility of age, living life to the fullest...all these and more are expertly explored in Feeny-Williams' brisk comedy. It's a fun buildup with a great payoff!
  • She Sells Sea-Shells

    This play is a delight, steeped in wistful melancholy in the best way. The pacing is perfect and the rhythm of the dialogue is ace. The twisty verbal acrobatics are as fun for the audience as for the actors. Samantha’s take on nostalgia and the passage of time is fresh and clever — well done!

    This short play has it all -- great setting, well-defined characters, sharp dialogue, universal theme. What I really like is that it's still light and nimble. Sometimes plays about loss and grief can sink beneath their own weight and give in to the darkness. Not this one! Andrew keeps it wonderfully balanced with a lot of heart and humanity. Well done!
  • Alpha Omega Incorporated

    Heaven needs "a new protocol" and God needs to be "relieved" of His duties, it seems. (Out with the old!) Joe Swenson's satire crackles with all the right corporate-speak and business buzzwords yet unearths some sobering revelations. What a clever, well-written slice of (cubicle) life!
  • Miss R.R.Hood Versus The Wolf.
    3 Feb. 2022
    This is a fun play! If, like me, you enjoy seeing your well-loved characters with a devilish edge, you'll like this version of the classic fairy tale chock full of references to myriad other stories. And as the snappy rhythm slows, you might find yourself getting a little choked up (I did!) just before the twisty ending.
