  • Samantha Marchant: Daisy Violet the Bitch Beast King

    I absolutely love how physically messy this script is - starting with the wonderful stage directions describing the girls' dresses and the dirt from the plants and ending with the art installation. The dialogue flows with ease and the scenes fall nicely into the next. Weird and well crafted. Highly recommend.

  • Samantha Marchant: WINDBERRY CREEK

    Carnes does a wonderful job crafting three full formed intergenerational women. Lots of humor and heart!

  • Samantha Marchant: The Tiger Play

    Phelan's writing does a great job pulling Mabel and the audience this way and that when exploring this love triangle. The differences and similarities between Louis and Rajah the Tiger are striking as they ask for all of Mabel, but is she willing to give over her full self? The use of movement and dance would be wonderful to see on stage.

  • Samantha Marchant: A Reputation (A Short Monologue About Matthew Weaver, Whom I Have Never Met and Hopefully Takes No Issue With the Existence of the Following Existential Musings)

    This is so great. It's generous and kind and funny and on the macro existential level it set my mind soaring with thoughts of names, standings, writing and relationships.

  • Samantha Marchant: Pandora & The Box

    Written with a striking texture, the language of this script is a pleasure to read and, I'm sure, exciting to hear.

  • Samantha Marchant: The Magnolia Ballet

    Stunning! The lists and links and beautiful steps Guest's writing takes you through come together like a song. This play needs to be done many times and I hope to see it.

  • Samantha Marchant: This Is Bull

    Utterly ridiculous - fun!

  • Samantha Marchant: A First-Draft Second-Rate Love Story

    Funny! The draft confusion works oh so well. Exiting before the end of the page is a sweet, perfect ending.

  • Samantha Marchant: Mother Ever After - Monologue

    Beautiful! The threads of words, relationships, time and images are woven together in a simple, powerful way.

  • Samantha Marchant: The Coffeehouse Monologues

    These monologues capture some fascinating people clearly going through some stuff (seven deadly sin vibes) in a coffee shop. Hendricks makes each monologue creepy and immediate in distinct ways. I'm particularly drawn to the monologues of Rafael and Scott. Well done!
