I was blessed to be part of the growth of this piece and it does not disappoint. Gingrich masters the personality of her characters and takes you on a wild ride of family secrets, trauma, and the power of the truth. This play will take you from wanting to tear some of the character's face off and then the next moment wanting to wrap them in a hug. This emotional rollercoaster that happens 'Across the Lake' is about to take place in your heart.

A sweet, cute, and heartwarming story of a young couple learning the importance of understanding your partner's love language...and the kicker...not everyone enjoys glitter.

This piece may only be 10-minutes, but it dives head-first into a life-long struggle for true happiness and fulfillment, which all come to a peak in the middle of a tricky heist! A true treat with a twist that will stay with the audience after the curtain has closed.

Cokinos wonderfully analyzes a moment in an aging woman's life as her career in print, a dying profession, classes with the reality that in order to save her passion she needs to adapt! A heart-warming story of change and growth in an age of rapidly changing ideals and communication methods.

Amsler breathes a new life into the #metoo movement, exploring the comic side of something that has swept the nation while maintaining its importance and offering fresh perceptions.

A perfect holiday play with a twist that is sure to warm the hearts of audiences everywhere. Amsler opens the window into a world where we can see the real meaning behind those cheerful cards we get every year.

An incredibly creative premise that launches the audience on a journey that no one could have prepared them for. Scott's wit is present in every moment. It's rare to see puppetry incorporated into modern works and its incorporation into this piece adds a level of theatricality to this "mundane office." I can honestly say, I've never had a more delightful interaction with a Canada Goose.

Do you miss the days of sitting around the campfire listening to your friends telling scary stories? This script brings you straight back to those days. It's an intimate piece that makes you feel like you are right there listening and always waiting for the moment that's going to make you jump. Then you do...you jump several times and BAM the image is there. I would love to see how this is staged. Quick and dark, just how I like my horrors.

Levine is the king of creativity with this one. He gets you routing for two strangers to give each other a chance and appreciating the crazy lady who through them together. If I had to describe it in one word: magic!

My absolute favorite 1-minute play of all time. In the course of one minute, you go through the entire lives of this new couple and while it makes you laugh out loud when it first touches the ears, it's also a wonderful piece about life and how quickly it goes and how little we often think (or communicate) about our intentions and actions.
