This is a perfect take on the absurdity of a recent 28 Plays Later Prompt, but it works beyond that exercise by giving us a story with which all writers can identify. "Submission Opportunities" is a hilarious satire of the unpleasant side of the creative business: Actually finding places to take your work. Bravo, Debra Cole!

Mass shootings are the worst part of American life. A close second is the way that we as a society have accepted them as the price of "freedumb" for the last 50 years. Debra Cole's disturbing but powerful short play is a reminder that not only have school shootings been a phenomenon for decades, but we used to be outraged about them.
Brilliant work.

Just when you thought it was not possible to love Lizzo more, Debra Cole gives us this fantastic musical! The story integrates the songs seamlessly, and Cole presents relatable characters in whose struggles the audience becomes fully invested. And then they sing, which just makes you love the songs even more.
It's about damn time someone put this on a stage!

Short, disturbing, supernatural and laugh-out-loud funny. In other words, another terrific Christopher Soucy play. I think audiences would have a ball with this, and the last line will bring the house down. Bravo!

Who we truly are lies somewhere between the bones and the skin, and Cesario Tirado-Ortiz brings that fact to life brilliantly in this captivating and important monologue.
Atticus Finch advised that you never really know someone until you "climb inside of his skin and walk around in it," and that is exactly the journey the audience travels with this monologue.
People who do not understand the trans experience need to hear this piece.

This should be #lifegoals for any married couple as they approach their golden years: To spy on the goings-on of passersby and annoy one's spouse with quick banter. Is there anything better in life?
I'd love to see "The Neighbors" on a stage. Older actors would eat this up, and audiences would have a ball. Bravo!

What a beautiful and incredibly theatrical piece! Debra Cole gives us an intro to Noh theater that is entertaining, poignant and downright lovely.
I would love to see this on a stage!

A terrific two-hander that keeps the suspense taut as a harp string all the way to the end, which is just perfect. I watched the author and actor/playwright Miranda Jonte perform this play at Back Porch Theater, and I don't think I took a breath through the entire play.
Bravo!

I've never seen "HARVEY," but now that I've read Deb Cole's excellent take on it, I'm not sure I want to. Her take on the classic puts us in the universe and twists it into a delightfully terrifying piece.
I'm told that "HARVEY" is a comedy. It works better as a thriller. Check it out for yourself.

All Romeo had to do was wait, like 10 minutes.
Ever think that?
Ever wonder what would happen if he DID?
Wonder no more. Christopher Soucy has solved that riddle, waking Romeo up to what could be the rest of his life.
"Drink Thou Off" is a terrific short comedy that shows the perils of young love that Shakespeare left out of of his famous play. Bravo!
