  • Cameo Friend by Justin Guidroz
    12 Dec. 2019
    “ Justin taps into the college zeitgeist with characters students will recognize instantly and who will make them look at the people around them a little differently. I knew a Kevin in college and this play made me wonder where he is now. ”
  • Predictor by Jennifer Blackmer
    9 Dec. 2019
    “ Compelling, theatrical, and FUNNY, this play highlights and honors a woman in history who deserves to be known for her contribution! ”
  • Mahogany Brown and the Case of the Disappearing Kid by Gina Femia
    4 Dec. 2019
    “ Great genre mash-up that still delivers moving drama in the most satisfying of ways. Even when hard-boiled, Gina's amazing poetic voice comes through strong and she offers a design team delight! ”
  • The Great Porn Caper by Bryan Stubbles
    4 Dec. 2019
    “ Colleges, take note: your students will love this fast-paced and funny romp through sex, mystery, and a glorious take-down of Trump! ”
  • Paletas de Coco or, The Letter Unspoken or, The Christmas Eve Play by Franky D. Gonzalez
    2 Dec. 2019
    “ This play is everything a stellar play needs to be: honest, generous, resonant, meaningful, significant, painful, scary, provocative, moving, theatrical, powerful, loving, truthful, and a spectacular evening of theater. Hand me the notebook, Franky: you are amazing, talented and, most of all, loved. Thank you. ”
  • ROOM 27 by Greg Burdick
    27 Nov. 2019
    “ Room 27 is where all the questions get asked and the answers never come--and probably never will in this living hell for some of our favorite musicians. And maybe not even for us. The play left me uncomfortable in the best way as I contemplated the relentless pursuit of fame and the cost for so many, as well as the hells we create for ourselves. A really thoughtful and provocative work! ”
  • Closing Doors by John Minigan
    25 Oct. 2019
    “ So good! The best plays leave you in that spot where you just don't know what you would do, which leads to the self-examination that can lead to questioning that can lead to change. "Closing Doors" is a perfect rock-and-a-hard-place example. ”
  • Crazy Quilts by Karen Fix Curry
    18 Oct. 2019
    “ Oh I love this! I want it to be a full-length play! Creepy, dark, comic, and delicious. ”
  • Queen of Sad Mischance by John Minigan
    26 Sep. 2019
    “ I read this play years ago and just had the pleasure of rereading it to find that it's been polished to a fine sheen! The dialogue is among the best I've ever read, the themes ever-relevant, and the characters expertly drawn. It's time to put this play on its feet! ”
  • Zero by Ian August
    10 Sep. 2019
    “ From a pit of despair both literal and figurative, Ian has drawn hope and handed it to a memorable and sympathetic trio of teens who desperately needed it. Hugely theatrical, emotional, magical and all-too-real, ZERO--contrary to its title--is definitely something big, and I can't wait to see where it goes from this early draft. ”
