“ Set against a backdrop of an absurd, post-apocalyptic world, Camp Wonder takes a serious look at freedom, choice, and trust—all wrapped up in an unlikely love story. Meager has found new spins on familiar tropes and has created a protagonist the audience can’t help but root for from the very beginning. Plus, this play is an absolute gift to sound designers! This play flew by while I was reading it, and I can only imagine that it would be equally exciting and thought-provoking for a live audience. ”

“ I’m happy to add onto the heap of praise this play has received! Craig-Galván has taken the living room drama and shaken it up expertly. The interplay between the two couples is delicious enough, even before you get to the brilliant ending—one that’s done so deftly that it feels almost inevitable, rather than gimmicky. This script was an absolute joy to read, and I desperately hope I get to see it up on its feet one day! ”

“ In a world looking more and more critically at Mamet’s work and stature in the theatre (how delicious that one of the leads has Vogel as a surname!), Greene has found a twisty, taut way of adding to the conversation. I particularly appreciated the intersectional way fatness and queerness are layered into the broader discussion of sexism and misogyny. In a similar vein of “John Proctor is the Villain” (do better, fictional Johns!), this play invites audiences to take a much closer look at the art we consume and the way in which it gets made. ”

“ Jarred Corona’s SPOTTING THERMALS is a gritty procedural a la True Detective or The Fall, complete with dark twists and turns and suffused with poetry. More typically seen on the screen, I think this kind of story would come alive incredibly on the stage, and can only imagine how the tension will build in a live audience. A great read that I’d love to see up on its feet! ”
