  • The Little Christmas Tree by Dana Hall
    8 Apr. 2023
    “ To lose a child must be unbearable. Some women get through it, some women respond like Gracie. This is a touching play about loss. It is simply written but deeply moving. ”
  • Remembering Elizabeth by Jack Rushton
    8 Apr. 2023
    “ This play deals with memories, vivid and forgotten. As we listen and travel through time with the two characters, we make discoveries and learn about heartbreak. A simple play between an older couple it has moving and realistic dialogue. ”
  • So Much In Common by Karen Fix Curry
    8 Apr. 2023
    “ Wow, hard to imagine meeting your very own sister but in an odd way. Helen and Isabell meet at the beginning of the school year, and suddenly find out they have very much in common. Great two hander for teen girls. ”
  • ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER by Paul Smith
    8 Apr. 2023
    “ I had the happy experience of listening to ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER today on the podcast Theatrical Shenanigans out of England. This short play is a delightful two hander between an older woman and a young, nervous runner. Great dialogue and a terrific twist at the end. ”
  • K. I. S. S. I. N. G. by Debra A. Cole
    7 Apr. 2023
    “ This is a short play about discovery and wants. Two young girls talk about their future with love and simplicity. It is told truthfully and without guile. Innocence personified. ”
  • A FINGER POINTING by Charles Scott Jones
    31 Mar. 2023
    “ Why can't people let other people alone. In this short, tense play, we see how quickly tempers can flare. A clever use of black gloves takes on a journey...one no one wants to take. Very interesting short. ”
  • Tax Preparation for Dogs (3 short plays about the hard-of-hearing) by John Busser
    30 Mar. 2023
    “ As a dog person, I loved these three short plays. The characters (dogs) are right on. Andy with his hearing deficiency adds to the merriment. And Monica, the cat person, can just go to... Really fun pieces. ”
  • Lenora by Jonathan Cook
    29 Mar. 2023
    “ This is such a visceral short play...you sense Lenora's dreams as they are being told. It haunts you right from the start. And the ending, which shouldn't be a surprise, very definitely is. Great piece for a spooky festival. ”
  • Help *Monologue* by Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn
    27 Mar. 2023
    “ The loss of a person and not through death, is one of the hardest things to deal with in life. All the things that made them smart or special disappear. It's a living death and this monologue expresses it very well. ”
  • The First Time (Monologue) by Donald E. Baker
    27 Mar. 2023
    “ If you want your adrenalin to pump, this is the monologue to read or produce. From experimenting as a teen to a meet-up at a rest stop, a man learns he is not who he pretends to be in his life. Luckily the monologue takes place in 1975. Here's hoping men and women of today are more enlightened and not afraid to come out. ”
