  • Slicing An Onion by J.Lois Diamond
    24 Dec. 2019
    “ Powerful and terrifying, J. Lois Diamond’s “Slicing An Onion” is nonetheless a paean to forgiveness, no matter the personal cost. Gut-wrenching, but beautifully written, it stays with you. As it should. ”
  • The Murder Mystery Club’s Final Case by Justin Guidroz
    24 Dec. 2019
    “ Deliciously arch dialogue, full of zingers and red herrings, and great character roles for older actors give Justin Guidroz's "The Murder Mystery Club's Final Case" a sly sense of fun, like Nick and Nora Charles ran into the Golden Girls and they all had a field day. ”
  • Brian the Comet by Emily Hageman
    24 Dec. 2019
    “ I love this play. Not having read Emily Hageman's work before, "Brian the Comet" was a wonderful introduction, a delightful, funny, sad, and yes, brilliant, rumination on love, life, death, and everything in between, told with an unusually engaging creativity and tenderness. And be sure to read the character descriptions, themselves a work of flippantly saucy art. ”
  • The Shark Play by Miranda Jonté
    24 Dec. 2019
    “ Feuding televison stars, especially when their simmering resentments spill over whilst on the air — live — are a natural subject for satirizing, but when treated as smartly as Miranda Jonte does in “The Shark Play,” their petty problems take on a deeper meaning and feeling. Darkly humorous, and with several moments of shocking savagery, “The Shark Play” reels us in with spot on characterizations and a sharply observed viewpoint. ”
  • Cuban Poetry by - Coleman
    23 Dec. 2019
    “ A terrific example of story telling in monologue form, and a telling snapshot of a time and place not unlike what ours is once again becoming. ”
  • WYWH by Tom Moran
    23 Dec. 2019
    “ 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. ”
  • Living Our Best Kristen Bell Life by Matthew Weaver
    23 Dec. 2019
    “ What a lovely, ruminative dissemination of celebrity worship, wishful comparisons, and sibling support, handled with Weaver’s customary astute skill and gentle humor. ”
  • Waiting for Tipper by Lee R. Lawing
    22 Dec. 2019
    “ Delightful and touching, with roles actors can sink their claws into and have a great time. ”
  • Expectations by Jennifer O'Grady
    21 Dec. 2019
    “ Heartbreaking and beautifully rendered, this is a perfect ten. ”
  • Child of the Movement by Cheryl Davis
    21 Dec. 2019
    “ 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. ”
