  • Showtime Blues by France-Luce Benson
    15 Feb. 2021
    “ An absolutely gorgeous one act play about joy, living, breathing, and the judgments we make about each other. I love to see what happens when characters get trapped together, and what happens between Ameira and Demetrius is moving and romantic. ”
  • The Waiting Room by Sharai Bohannon
    14 Feb. 2021
    “ Sharai is one of my favorite playwrights, and this play is just one more reason why. THE WAITING ROOM is tender, poignant, and theatrical. Another beautiful piece from Bohannon. ”
  • Unnerving Stains by Tramaine Brathwaite
    13 Feb. 2021
    “ I LOVE this short thriller -- I was on the edge of my seat reading it and can only imagine how that feeling would expand during a production. Brathwaite effortlessly weaves together moments of horror and beauty in a unique and exciting way, and the characters are heightened and electric. Brilliant short play. ”
  • Waverly Place by Gloria J. Browne-Marshall
    12 Feb. 2021
    “ A fascinating one-man show set in its own world, where ghosts may just be real. The barbershop is a country all to itself, populated with fascinating characters and intrigue. This would be an extraordinary and exciting challenge for an actor to work together with an artistic team to bring this play to life. It would be fascinating to see produced. ”
  • WHEN THEY SEE ME (ONE ACT VERSION) by Twinkle Burke
    11 Feb. 2021
    “ What a stunning play -- I agree with the other recommendations: this play must be staged. An utterly unique concept with layers of meaning and conflict that go so much deeper than the surface level. I can't wait to be introduced to more of Burke's writing. ”
  • The Three Brujas by Christin Eve Cato
    10 Feb. 2021
    “ I loved THE THREE BRUJAS -- a clever set up with snappy dialogue makes this play an absolute must-read, especially for Shakespeare-lovers. ”
  • The Arrangement by JM Lahr
    9 Feb. 2021
    “ A sweet, cute romantic comedy about boundaries and compromise. Romcoms are hard to find for the stage, and this would be such a fun addition to an evening of short romcoms. ”
  • Crowndation; I Will Not Lie to David by Angelica Chéri
    8 Feb. 2021
    “ A tender expression of hope and heartbreak, this is a dazzling one-woman show about loss and claiming your life as your own in the face of questions and uncertainty. It's a pleasure to go on this woman's journey through her 29th year. ”
  • Antony and Cleopatra: Couples Therapy by Andrea Coleman
    7 Feb. 2021
    “ I knew from the moment I laid eyes on this play that I was going to love it, and it did not disappoint at all. I loved every moment of this short piece. It's punchy and funny, a real treat to read. I think actors would have an awesome time with this script. ”
  • But What Am I? by Vinecia Coleman
    6 Feb. 2021
    “ A spectacular play about grieving and coming clean. BUT WHAT AM I? asks the question: do your mistakes make you any less good?, and it offers no easy answers. Lovely dialogue and lovely stage directions set in the context of heartbreaking revelations. This would be a joy for three actors to perform. ”
