  • Martha Patterson: Elvis Dry Humps Nixon by Bryan Stubbles
    “

    A twisted take on two famous men - one, a politician, the other, a musical star - and, contrary to what we might expect, we see them "get it on" with each other, and make love, not war.

  • Martha Patterson: Ice Cream Sisters by Bryan Stubbles

    "A lost love is a thorn in the heart forever." From the gentleness of the story, to the truncated dialogue, to the artful stage directions, this is a lovely play. Stubbles and Maddox have made their collaboration seamless.

  • Martha Patterson: Mrs. Claus Gets Menopause by Daniel Guyton
    “

    A thoroughly delightful and hilarious story about Mrs. Claus and Santa discussing her "change of life," this is a short play that could be done by any holiday-themed festival with a sophisticated audience. Not for children, but very funny.

  • Martha Patterson: The Maltese Walter by John Minigan
    “

    A very comical take on noir themes, about a meek accountant whose unexpected lapsing into his "super-hero" mode leads to a saxophone playing in the background and sudden terse and tough dialogue. Great job by the wonderful writer John Minigan.
