  • Samantha Marchant: Birdseed

    I felt invited into the family from the very beginning, which made me feel the joy in their quirks and the deep grief in their mourning. The ending is lovely. Well done!

  • Samantha Marchant: Missive (10 min)

    Lovely weaving of familiar myths and original story of the messengers. It moved at a great pace, making it enjoyable to read and I bet even better to see. I greatly appreciate this in-depth look at characters often over looked, messengers. The messengers'' and Calidan's monologues near the end beautifully depict the script's message on fate and meaning.

  • Samantha Marchant: The Early Flight

    The ridiculous little details make this already funny situation that much more enjoyable and unique. Well done!

  • Samantha Marchant: Murder at the Dionysus

    Masterful word play that is very fun to read and I imagine even greater to see on stage! Love the shadows, the streets and hat buying.

  • Samantha Marchant: TELL ME I'M GORGEOUS AT THE END OF THE WORLD, The Last Gay Play

    Funny, subversive and wonderfully absurd! I love the use of lists, rhymes and disruptions and how this script asks the question of who gets to decide who is beautiful.

  • Samantha Marchant: Antigone, presented by the girls of St. Catherine's

    Brilliant work! Each of the students is well crafted and this is a great script for a female ensemble. I was captivated by each girls' response to the situation, especially Susan's and how it relates to Creon. The tension of the last scene is explosive. Hope to catch this one live!

  • Samantha Marchant: Six Dead Bodies Duct-Taped to a Merry-Go-Round

    What a title! A wild ride for the characters, the bodies and the audience that makes for a fun time.

  • Samantha Marchant: Clyt; or, The Bathtub Play

    A truly fabulous script! It is clear Speckman knows her Clytemnestra inside and out. This is a character that has my full attention. Every element in the script is woven with such care. Love the bathtub and all the visuals. A fresh take on an old tale, highly recommend!

  • Samantha Marchant: Apologies to Lorraine Hansberry (You Too August Wilson)

    I absolutely love all the different ways Lynett rolls with the meta. The different kinds of "exposition" monologues and when Izaak comes out near the end and then what follows... wow! Highly recommend.

  • Samantha Marchant: The Grand Illusion Show

    Enjoyable, concise and full of magic! Would love to see multiple productions to see how they each run with the ideas Dendinger generously offers.
