  • I'll Tell You at Sunrise by Franky D. Gonzalez
    20 Apr. 2018
    “ I like this one. I'm a sucker for two people bonding under unique circumstances. I'm also a sucker for someone who seems to have so little assisting someone who seems to have more. I found myself hoping they do get to talk about it at sunrise. ”
  • Bev. by Gina Femia
    19 Apr. 2018
    “ Femia has made me cry again. This is a very beautiful, magical, and sometimes funny short piece dealing with grief and blame. I'd love to see this produced somewhere. It's also a really great scene for anyone looking for short pieces for three actresses that passes the Bechdel test. ”
  • Rip of Skin (monologue - max. 10 min.) by Robin Rice
    19 Apr. 2018
    “ This is incredibly intriguing and I think it would be fun to get on it's feet. Would love to see what different performers bring to this Crow. It paints some very evocative moments that would also be fun for a director to play with. ”
  • MARVEL-OUS MONICA; IN WHICH MONICA LEWINSKY IS A SUPERHERO HELL-BENT ON REVENGE by Sarah Tuft
    18 Apr. 2018
    “ I love the imagery in this play and that it examines the power dynamics that exist in a lot of the #metoo accounts. We need more plays that take a stand and say something to challenge the way we view specific incidents. I also love that Tuft doesn't let our hero completely off of the hook either as Monica is still processing what happened and sometimes sees it differently that the co-ed's situation. ”
  • This Floating World by Tira Palmquist
    18 Apr. 2018
    “ I love the way this play explores privilege (and subconscious biases) but maintains a sort of magical realm. I think Palmquist gives us a protagonist that we find hard to empathize with so that we can appreciate her journey to becoming a better person that much more. Any play with that type of DNA deserves to be produced often. ”
  • THE LAST DATE by Emma Goldman-Sherman
    17 Apr. 2018
    “ Very clever play that deserves to be produced in theatres looking for ways to get theatrically involved with the #metoo and #Timesup movement. Important necessary work that breaks the fourth wall with a mission of holding the audience accountable. ”
  • Scratching the Surface by Charly Evon Simpson
    17 Apr. 2018
    “ I really really love this script. It's tense and creepy and deals with abduction and assault in a way we don't see on stage often. I couldn't put it down and I'm still not sure I've processed all of my emotions after reading it (even though I read it months ago). Looking forward to reading a lot more by Simpson! ”
  • Gifts by Erin Grogan
    17 Apr. 2018
    “ Super interesting premise. I also love that it's a two-hander with women at Comic Con and that it's unpredictable. This could be a lot of fun to play with for actors and a nice addition to a festival. ”
  • Little Perfect You by Caitlin Turnage
    17 Apr. 2018
    “ Turnage is onto something with this play. Not just because Purity Balls are archaic and creepy, or because we need more female and non-binary roles, or because we need more plays about brilliant girls who march to the beat of their own drummer, but because we need all of the above and then some. ”
  • VALERIE: A COSPLAY MONOLOGUE by Asher Wyndham
    17 Apr. 2018
    “ I am in love with Valerie!! We need more of these types of badass ladies in all forms of media (especially at this particular moment in time) and I know I would LOVE to see this produced immediately. Viva La Valerie! ”
