  • Antigone's Sister by Emma Goldman-Sherman
    27 Apr. 2020
    “ The use of the chorus in this script is extremely effective. The repetition and reversals in language add a sense of heighten theatricality. The piece moves beautifully like a score. It is a world created to dwell in and ponder questions of gender, roles and names. ”
  • MADNESS MOST DISCREET: Larry and Viv's Last Visit by Donna Hoke
    23 Apr. 2020
    “ A well structured exploration of love, life and what we mean to one another. Hoke expertly weaves in facts about two movie legends as she keeps the story moving forward. Tender and a bit heartbreaking, this two-hander will appeal to fans of Viv and Larry and to those who just love love. ”
  • LITTLE WOMEN...NOW (90-minute cut available under "script sample"!) by Donna Hoke
    20 Apr. 2020
    “ I'm so glad I gave this a read! Donna breaths oh so refreshing fresh air into Little Women. Her script is cleverly crafted and updated to appeal to fans of the story, old and new. It's clear in the details how much she cares for her characters, making it so easy for us to care deeply too. ”
  • Berserker by Bruce Walsh
    17 Apr. 2020
    “ Vivid, bizarre and funny. Hooked from the first scene and absorbed until the end. Each of the characters is really something special. ”
  • Curse of the Puerto Ricans by Rosa Fernandez
    13 Apr. 2020
    “ The writing has such beautiful intimacy, that we really get to know and feel for the characters and this family. The script raises questions about family, responsibility and when is it time to go. The dialogue moves and takes you to a wonderful, wordless ending. A great read, I’d love to see it on stage! ”
  • Red Alien by Jane B. Jones
    10 Apr. 2020
    “ I had the pleasure of attending a reading of Red Alien and it has stuck with me ever since. Great fun for three actresses to play many awesome roles. Has lots to chew on. The value of workers. Value of women. Questioning authority - executives, government, religion. The job of procreation. Blind faith. Being special/chosen. Consent. Waiting. Miscommunication. There are so many beautifully strange moments like the movement language to static. I so want to see the delicious weirdness of the pop ritual, at the end, come to life. Spectacular! ”
  • The Mighty Maisie by Bella Poynton
    8 Apr. 2020
    “ Maisie is a great character. Smart. Fiercely protective of friends (old and new) and her pristine spot in the trailer park. And now she has unearthly powers. Poynton's script digs in with clever dialogue and stage directions that invite stunning designs. It all builds up to a spectacular ending. ”
  • Boycott Esther by Emily Acker
    22 Mar. 2020
    “ Fresh and timely. Exciting to imagine the different ways the script can be realized. Thought provoking and a great ending. ”
  • Aloha Apocalypse (Ten Minute Play) by Marcia Eppich-Harris
    19 Mar. 2020
    “ Makes you feel the tension, the love, and the truth of a very surreal situation. A captivating script that askes "what would you do?" ”
  • Safe Space by R. Eric Thomas
    19 Mar. 2020
    “ A big mix of wonderful that easily flows. The 'clue' endings are a so so satisfying conclusion to a completely engaging script. "Flames." ”
