  • Next Exit by J. Chavez
    19 Oct. 2022
    “ An absolute delight from beginning to end. j’s play engages in conversation with theatre of the absurd, while retaining a stunning originality and distinctive voice. These are characters that actors will be begging to bring to life. By far one of my favorite plays of the year. ”
  • Tender in the Spring, Tough in the Summer by Walden Barnett Marcus
    31 Aug. 2022
    “ This is a beautifully done play that highlights the unavoidability of a young love that can’t stay how it’s always been, no matter how many times the apologies are reset or reworked. The repeated use of nettles and tomatoes evokes the fresh feeling of summer and all the heartache that comes with it. A truly excellent ten minute play. ”
  • what the Gods gave me by Eryn Elyse McVay
    30 May. 2021
    “ A chilling gothic tale inspired from Brontëan traditions, McVay's play is an excitingly different look into being caught in the web of a familial cult. The Victorian setting contrasts with the use of modern language, and reminds the reader/watcher of the timelessness of its subject matter. Another excellent work from Eryn. ”
  • Eight Steps for Total Happiness by Eryn Elyse McVay
    19 Mar. 2021
    “ Two very excellent monologues highlighting the never ceasing growing pains of being alive. Very smartly written. ”
  • Apocalypse Roadtrip by Wren Aubrey Latham
    12 Sep. 2020
    “ Nothing like the apocalypse to remind you of what really matters; talking about dumb stuff with your friends. Latham's method of using humor to cope with tragedy is expertly written, and every line packs a punch. The story snaps you right back into place the second you get too comfortable. An excellent ten minute!! ”
  • The Tragic Ecstasy of Girlhood by Kira Rockwell
    16 Oct. 2019
    “ This is a piece that hurts in the best ways. Rockwell's characters are delightfully human, making their traumas and experiences all the more difficult to stomach. A wonderful play about with a hopeful and bittersweet end. ”
  • lasting beauty by J. Chavez

    “ A glance into how difficult it is to talk about depression, and how people who claim to understand can't take the brutal truth of it all. ”
  • Jeremiah's Creeping Arm by Eryn Elyse McVay
    8 Sep. 2019
    “ A short, sweet, and spooky play about how important the approval is of those that we love. McVay's lilting local legend makes this piece chill you to the bone right before it warms your heart. ”
  • Neat. by Eryn Elyse McVay
    21 Jun. 2019
    “ We love a manipulative character who half the time doesn't even realize they're being as manipulative as they are. Gordon fascinates me on so many levels, from his vision of what it means to apologize to why he does and says the things that he does. A fascinating study of relationships after trust has been shattered, and how dangerously subtle manipulation can be. ”
  • How Sweet The Sound by Eryn Elyse McVay
    21 Jun. 2019
    “ An absolutely thrilling and horrific story. McVay excels at writing multi-faceted characters who keep secrets from each other, the audience, and even from themselves. A truly well-done play. ”
