  • Philip Kaplan: The Writing Bug

    This is a great two-hander that explains the compulsion to write. It's short and funny and could be catching.

  • Philip Kaplan: Etched in Stone

    A touching play about life, love and loss. It's a wonderful example of the perspective one has over time, and how one never truly gets over loss. The characters are well drawn, and they complement and challenge each other perfectly. The piece has surprises and humor and a wonderful end.

  • Philip Kaplan: Glass Slipper, Size 8 1/2

    A fun play about the joys and dangers of living a fantasy life. Does your fantasy have rights. Are you the fantasy for other people. Does fantasy help or keep us from getting on with our lives. Snappy dialog and very theatrical.

  • Philip Kaplan: Feeble-Minded White Trash a full length

    This is a riveting play that brings the horrors of the past alive. It starts with topic of forced sterilization and family separation and shows the ramifications over thirty years. Covering a wide terrain, it still remains focused on the human element with vivid characters and great dialog.

  • Philip Kaplan: A Plot to Destroy Them All

    A very funny, genre bending play. Satiric, exciting and confusing all at once. The characters are in a race to save the world with a ludicrous plot. Very theatrical, with funny dialog and no rules. Just go along for the ride.

  • Philip Kaplan: Night of the Living

    A poignant and terrifying play, which manages to intertwine marital problems with zombies. It's a great two theatrical two hander, with two vivid characters dealing with the worst life can throw at them. The ending is hopeful and sad.

    A sharp, frightening work about the perils of automation combined with arrogance.

  • Philip Kaplan: Joan's Arc

    A great, insightful, tightly structured play, dealing with an important issue. Issue plays can be didactic, here I was brought in by the characters and the surprising plot twists. The play paints a realistic portrait of the complexities of grief in the aftermath of an unseen school shooting. .
