As a long time resident of the south and a paranormal enthusiast, I truly enjoyed Give Up The Ghost. A wry observation of the troubling fascinations of the south mingled with an original take on ghost lore.

It’s not often you read a play that dances so sublimely around love and loss. This is a wonderfully moving tale of the nature of words and the power of love. It is a cozy, easily produced work that deserves to be on stages everywhere.

This is an evocative and beautifully executed theatrical experience. There is a peculiar balance between clinical distance and heartfelt intimacy. I would love to see this piece onstage.

I had a knot in my stomach reading this play. A tremendous achievement in capturing the angst of truth in such trying times. I imagined myself as an actor portraying the unsavory main character and knew it would be a feat of acting, but a wound to the soul. Bravo to Donald Baker for crafting this unflinching look at the past, this damning commentary of the present, and , hopefully, this effective warning for the future.

In a monologue that is lyrical, musical, and fierce, Scott Sickles paints a portrait of the defiant strength that can elevate prey to predator. There is a whimsical sensation to this piece, but the underlying terror that weighs upon every woman caught walking alone among the shadows that hide very real threats is palpable. Another fantastically entertaining piece by Mr. Sickles.

Lovely modern fairy tale. Hints of Midsummer Night's Dream and every story that ventures into a magic forest. A wonderfully wry examination of a hunter's sensibilities.

Holy crap! This is a damn good play. The characters are masterfully constructed and delivered with a perfect combination of reverence and reality. This play makes the writer in me jealous while the theater lover in me rejoices. I can’t wait to read the third installment of this trilogy!

What a fantastic play! Perfectly paced and well balanced (pun almost intended.) I found the setup brilliant and the payoff cathartic. I could easily see it on the stage in my mind as I read. A wonderfully theatrical piece that will undoubtedly delight audiences wherever it is produced.

Wonderful installment of the further adventures of everyone’s favorite vampire teddy bear. This series has been a joy to read and I have imagined the many ways to present it onstage. A puppet might be a great way to go. Although, just a man in a brown suit would also be great.

The much anticipated tale of how the bear got his fangs is a welcome story! These short pieces carry with them a whole world of possibilities.
