  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: A Bubbe's Gift

    The connection between the grandmother and granddaughter is so beautiful. With every word, I could picture the two of them. There's a wig and it symbolizes so much. I am ever hopeful for Bubbe.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: Just A Local

    Oh the telling of tales once the summer is over. Is there just an ounce of jealousy about the summer residents. If secrets get told... This is a short and to the point monologue about one man left when the rich go home.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: The Shirt

    A sweet short play about two siblings arguing about appropriate dress for their mother’s funeral. Wasn’t sure where it was going and loved the surprise turn about at the end.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: Vinterlys

    This is a mysterious piece of writing...now I want to know more. What happens to Samantha and Akuma now. Vinterlys, the theme of this piece, didn't turn out the way I thought it might. Very entertaining play leaving us with a lot of questions.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: I.T.S. (In the Syllabus)

    This delightful one minute play sounds like what I hear from my college professor friends! So true and on the mark. Sadly.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: The Bear - Beginnings

    From the mouth of a small, stuffed bear...the horror of the war. This monologue is sad and delightful both, and gives us a glimpse of one life saved.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: The Wilderness: A Ten-Minute Play

    Everyone knows war is hell. But sometimes there is some salvation when opponents meet. This is a raw piece of theatre. A two hander bringing us the horrors of war and how two men save each other from more horror.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: The Sign

    The Sign is a timely short play about listening and hearing; about assumptions when you don't know better and should; and about ingrown prejudices.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: Walkies

    A lovely sad, but very funny piece. I laughed out loud at some of Jennifer O'Grady's lines. It is also about connecting. A really sweet two hander for two women.

  • Marj O'Neill-Butler: Possibly the First of Many

    Didn't see the ending coming. What an interesting twist. Good two hander with two very interesting characters in an unusual setting.
