I'm absolutely in love with STILETTO ENVY. It's sweet, it's sad, it's funny: it's really a perfect ten-minute play.

This play gave me shivers that won't quit. An absolutely devastating piece about what we carry on and what we leave behind when we're gone. AND OTHER DREAMS WE HAD is poetic and visceral, a stark look at a future that doesn't feel too far removed from reality.

Have I ever enjoyed a play as much as THE BITCHES? It's hard to say. I do know I'll be telling everyone I talk to about it. It is such a fun romp with so much depth -- a perfect satire. I'm desperate to see this produced.

Wow. This play gave me chills that would not go away. THE BOMB gives so much in such a short span: romance, comedy, overwhelming danger, rage, grief. The dialogue is quick and sharp as a knife. It's perfectly paced, and the stakes continue to crank up to a fever pitch by the end. This is a really special play.

There's so much packed into this ten-minute play about the age of Covid: how will we help our kids?; how will we keep ourselves safe?; how will we keep ourselves sane? Jordan takes the built-in high stakes of the pandemic and adds fuel to the fire. A great short play that would be a perfect addition to a festival of Covid plays.

Sweet and sad, MY OWN DARLING BOY walks a beautiful line between tragedy and romance. In a time when LGBTQIA2S+ liberties are under constant threat by state governments, this play serves as a reminder of how far we have come and how much further we still have to go to ensure the safety and dignity of our neighbors.

A lovely contemplation of self and love in its various forms. I love the application of Greek philosophy to a romantic comedy -- what a truly unique and lovely idea.

SWIRL is an absolutely stunning exploration of the politics of race and gender, relationships, and what we want and what we're willing to sacrifice in order to get it. The stakes are so high for these characters, who have all been hurled together to change each other's perspectives. Asante flawlessly ups the tension throughout the play, and the final conflict pulls it all in in a perfect way.

Sweet, funny, and poignant, P.A.B. is a great look at the unknowns that unexpectedly bind us together with those we hold most dear. Madeline and Julianne have a complicated relationship, and it thrums with love and respect. A great addition to any 10 minute play festival.

COVID BE DAMNED almost hurts to read. Beaty taps into the dismay, the frustration, the anger, the terror, and the heartache that has descended on us during this pandemic. These women all come from different perspectives and have unique responses to the spread of COVID. This play will read like a very honest and earnest time capsule when life returns to "normal." A perfect play to be produced now and later.
