What a great monologue between two perfectly unfeeling lines! Norr touches upon separation and longing with nicely placed surprises, barreling us towards the end.

This goldfish made me think about life, change and satisfaction. I hope Flash gets some friends to hangout with, be they human or fish.

Very funny! Living in upstate NY, this exchange could completely happen at a bus stop near me.

Love it! Mabey takes us on a full journey of love and vampires in just one page. I'm sure it'd be a riot to see on stage. I enjoyed all the references to necks/scarves/tapestries. Well done!

These parents tackle a big concern early in their child's life but they and Crose are able to clearly state their beliefs in a short amount of time. Well done.

A great monologue about coping and reacting to change told from the POV of a wonderfully sassy and curious cat.

"It’s good to have a little genuine drama in the evening. Euripides, one feels, sometimes
tries too hard." Jolly juxtaposes Medea with the House UnAmerican Activities Hearings - making one doozy of a night at bookclub. I like the way these women's lines are formed. Some favorites are: "This is
not a veneer we paste over the darkness, it is the bedrock, the very foundation of
civilization." and "like a horse in harness. In his rightful place." Nothing ever will be the same after these Ithaca Ladies read Medea.

Wonderful riff on Ionesco and absurdism. I love each of the three main characters' last moments. The townspeople are too funny!

I would love to see this in a night of short plays! Sickles takes your mind on such adventures while he only calls for one actor on stage. He invites your mind to soar. I love what is included from mythology and what's expanded upon to include today and illusion. Izar is a fabulous character with powers to dig into. Poseidon better watch out! The Minotaur (especially if voiced by two actors at the same time) gave me chills!

I loved reading this play and I want to see it! Polak weaves parallels between time and space with ease. The protest moments at the beginning and end are striking bookends. I'm so into the use of ghosts and Chopin's monologue. Act II is such a powerful interlude. I so appreciate the musings on time and action. I dig how many characters get to have intimate moments. Highly recommend!
