  • Rachel Bublitz: cara has a hole in her head

    The thing I appreciate most about "cara has a hole in her head" is how matter of fact this play is. It is dark and hilarious and contains so many levels of pain, but these are the facts of life for the characters and that makes the dark parts so so so much darker. It's Unsettling. I very much enjoyed reading it. I think it would be excellent in production.

  • Rachel Bublitz: Slow Jam

    A quiet look at intimacy and rebuilding after trauma. So much space for wonderful subtext. Also a really fun short for a sound designer to work on, so many possibilities.

  • Rachel Bublitz: Three Anne Franks

    Really phenomenal work. THREE ANNE FRANKS delves into identity, idolization, and the oddity and warping that can happen through only taking the parts we want from history. I love how bizarre Macdonald takes the script, and how she uses humor while tackling a subject we're told never to laugh at. But the beauty is that we're never laughing at Anne Frank or the Holocaust with THREE ANNE FRANKS, just the Disneyland-like change the subject goes through so that it can be "relatable" to modern audiences.

  • Rachel Bublitz: i didn't think you'd be so unhappy

    This play is so beautifully specific. All the characters are clear as crystal, and it's hilarious to boot. And while you're caught up in it, laughing, smelling vomit and back alleys, all the sudden you're on the edge of tears because female friendships are amazing and this play floods all of that and more into you in its brief pages. Excited to read more from this playwright.

  • Rachel Bublitz: A Christmas Pickle

    A wonderful holiday play filled with magic and longing for magic. It's sweet, without ever being overly sentimental, Incrocci leaves just the right space for the audience to lean in and fill in the rest of the myth with their own imagination. I know my mind is still filled with what might have been said the night before. Really well crafted.

  • Rachel Bublitz: The Improv Class

    This play starts out so funny and maddening - especially for anyone with experience in improv, and by the end it hits your straight in the heart. Really well crafted.

  • Rachel Bublitz: Love and the Fear of it All

    The amount of life covered in this ten-minute play is staggering, it has hilarious physical comedy, painful anxiety, exuberant joy, and passionate love. Rincon is able to make the audience snap in and care so much about the characters immediately. Would be such a blast to stage live, or watch from the audience. There's room for designers and a director to navigate exactly how extravagant the surprise is, which would be so fun to dig into. Really well done.

  • Rachel Bublitz: Well-Intentioned White People

    Lynett has an exceptional talent for creating complex and deep characters, putting them in intense situations, and making everyone laugh until they cry. This play made me look at my life and my choices and think about how I have absolutely not listened and not given space to humans who actually need it. I can/should do better. Making an audience realize that, while giving room to laugh, is this play's greatest strength. It's okay to make your audience uncomfortable. This play should be done across the country. Read this play! And more of Rachel Lynett's work. AND PRODUCE HER!

  • Rachel Bublitz: The Bomb A 10-minute Play

    A fast dangerous two-hander that deftly jumps between humor, jilted love, and generational trauma and tragedy. I was rooting for the two characters to find their way back to one another from the beginning, which made the conclusion all the more jarring and heart-breaking.

  • Rachel Bublitz: The Gift

    A chilling historical play that shows how you lose your humanity when you deny the humanity of others. White supremacy poisons the white couple in the play beyond repair. The frank dialogue from Lewis makes this play all the more horrifying.
