Tom Moran's WYWH is an enormously charming 10-minute time-traveling love story, at once heartbreaking for what can never be and delightfully giddy for what the relationship between the two main characters is. And the ending is perfect. Absolutely perfect.

What a lovely, ruminative dissemination of celebrity worship, wishful comparisons, and sibling support, handled with Weaver’s customary astute skill and gentle humor.

Delightful and touching, with roles actors can sink their claws into and have a great time.

Heartbreaking and beautifully rendered, this is a perfect ten.

A sharply incisive 10-minutes from the sharply incisive Cheryl Davis, CHILD OF THE MOVEMENT captures the rage and frustration of two people who want to do the right thing, but become stymied by the stigmas of their time and social class. A powerful work from the always astute Davis, one which lingers long after the last word has been read, or spoken.

I’ve always loved Snowmen; there’s something comforting about their presence on the winter landscape. Now I know why. Thank you, Bryan Stubbles — SMOWMAN OF VENGEANCE gets it, and we get a wonderfully bizarre Christmas gift.

Part One of Scott Sickles’ Second World Trilogy, MARIANAS TRENCH is huge, complex, terrifying, and gorgeous. A stunning work of art, it is intensely personal and quite possibly his best. Bravo, Scott!

Part Two of Scott Sickles’ Second World Trilogy, PANGEA is a stunning continuation of the love story begun in MARIANAS TRENCH, but far more intimate even as Sickles’ delves into ever deeper, darker waters with a skillfully deployed mixture of humor and dread, beautifully handled all the way through.

Part Three of Scott Sickles’ Second World Trilogy, THE KNOWN UNIVERSE is both heartbreaking and horrifying, by far the darkest of the three plays, and in its own quietly devastating way brings Sickles’ epic trilogy to a sad but strangely beautiful conclusion.

What fun! Bavoso makes some serious points about masculinity, toxic and otherwise, while all the while retaining a light-hearted approach that is both endearing and hilarious. For an early draft, it's in remarkably good shape, and will no doubt be a real audience pleaser when produced.
