  • Tiny Empty Nest by David Beardsley
    5 Jul. 2020
    “ This is a fantastic take on a couple finding their way after their lives are greatly disrupted by change. It's fanciful, and a real challenge to produce, but a wonderful idea with three great characters. ”
  • Recipe (a Zoom play) by Robert Weibezahl
    28 Jun. 2020
    “ Family disfunction and love...this play is a lovely slice of life which take place during the weekly Zoom meeting with a family of five. Very touching. ”
  • To the Zoom and Back by Cindi Sansone-Braff
    8 Jun. 2020
    “ This is a smile-a-lot short play with two distinct characters on a Zoom date. They probably aren't in the least compatible, but both are willing to try for a second date. A really sweet and funny short. ”
  • Dorothy's Dictionary by E. M. Lewis
    3 Jun. 2020
    “ I recently had the distinct pleasure of hearing a Zoom reading of Dorothy's Dictionary. I just now read the play because I wanted to taste it again. This is a quiet play that touches the heart and mind at every turn. This is a play about giving and receiving, and the result of kindness and encouragement. I love Lewis' work because there is always beauty in it. ”
  • AN IMPROPER EDUCATION FOR AN IMPROPER LADY (full-length play) by Dwayne Yancey
    3 Jun. 2020
    “ This is a delightful romp in Victorian England. A twist on the qualifications of being a governess, a bankrupt bumbling uncle determined to get his niece's fortune by marrying her off, a forward thinking and acting young woman all leading to a happy ending (and not including a marriage). Lots of asides and creative maneuvering of Victorian mores. ”
  • "THE RODINS ARE HERE!" by Scott Sickles
    3 Jun. 2020
    “ Ah, French artists! What less would you expect from your dinner guests? One who arrives with a piece of marble and carves a replica of the evening's dinner. This short play is imaginative to the nth degree. ”
  • How the Light Gets In by E. M. Lewis
    26 May. 2020
    “ EM Lewis has such a gentleness about her words and phrases. A unexpected word said simply would bring instant tears, while a moment later I would laugh at yet another small word or phrase. The Japanese Garden is at once peaceful and hopefully romantic. Such a quiet, meaningful, honest piece of theatre. If you want your pulse to slow down, read it. ”
  • Goodbye, Bobby by Philip Middleton Williams
    21 May. 2020
    “ Wow, some characters are larger than life and stay with you long after the play is over. Meet Donny and his character Bobby...who lives on after the writing is finished. A delightful short play by the very clever Philip Middleton Williams. ”
  • BLAME IT ON BARBIE, a four-minute comedy for two women by Arianna Rose
    16 May. 2020
    “ Blame It On Barbie has so much to offer in just a few minutes: parental expectations, acceptance, choices for the future and living life as it should be lived vy doing what you love. It's funny and emotional all at once. A great short play for two women. ”
  • Begging the Question by Philip Middleton Williams
    16 May. 2020
    “ He's nervous, she says no...he tries again another way, she still says no. Finally he gets it right. A swift and clever one minute play with a surprise ending. A really fun piece. ”
