  • Chris Gacinski: A Moment of Clarity by Philip Middleton Williams
    “

    William’s 10-minute play deals with the subject of memory loss, and I must add how honest and sweet this play is. It’s short, it’s concise, and it’ll make you feel something, all in a short amount of time. “A Moment of Clarity” would be a perfect addition to any short play festival!

  • Chris Gacinski: Phillie's Trilogy by Doug DeVita
    “

    DeVita has put on a playwrighting showcase with his piece “Phillie’s Trilogy.” This piece is structurally ambitious, yet DeVita cohesively ties everything together in this comedic, heart-wrenching period piece. The story he so beautifully tells is a testament to his ability. The praise for this piece is well-deserved. Stupendous work, Doug!

    Deray flawlessly displays how the grieving process can leave ever-lasting scars on those who've impacted them. Comedic at times, yet still remains sentimental and touching. A great script for college students, along with professional actors! Great work, Eytan!

  • Chris Gacinski: Cooler Near the Lake by Philip Middleton Williams

    Phillip Middleton Williams compellingly places these characters within familiar scenarios we've all been through. The sheer amount of realism he employs through the piece, paired with strong characters one can relate to, makes "Cooler Near the Lake" a fantastic read. I do hope I can see this on a stage one day. Well done, Mr. Williams!

    The amount of progress this piece has seen since my last encounter with it is nothing short of incredible. Deray pours his heart and soul into these characters, investing heavily into subject matter that should be addressed.

    Got to witness a reading of this piece at my school. Dialogue is poetic at times, and flows very nicely to cohesively tell this great story.
