  • All in Good Time by Alli Hartley-Kong
    22 Jan. 2023
    “ A great two-hander to play off that awkwardness of an unexpected reunion of former teenager lovers. The scene set in 1960s JN is so fully realized with its richness of backstory and past and present relationships. The writing is feels so natural, takes its time just perfectly. ”
  • Free! Powerful Muscles Fast! by Philip Middleton Williams
    21 Jan. 2023
    “ More plays and monologues like this, please, addressing male body image and social expectations. It's a topic not explored enough on page and stage. ”
  • NOT MY TALE TO TELL: A MONOLOGUE by Donna Latham
    18 Jan. 2023
    “ Yes, every bit of this monologue calling out anti-choice movement. Rarely do we get a perspective from caretakers and doctors -- for Latham's character it's deeply personal. A must for any festival on abortion and reproductive freedom. ”
  • Superheroes Aren't Allowed to Fuck (a monologue) by SMJ .
    18 Jan. 2023
    “ Wow, a powerful condemnation of sexual exploitation and toxic masculinity. I'd love to see this in a festival on consent or superheros/cosplay. ”
  • 2 Bdrm 1 Bath by Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn
    16 Jan. 2023
    “ Young couples married or not who live together will recognize themselves in Floyd-Priskorn's spot-on romantic comedy. We have everything here, the highs and lows, ups and downs, the bliss, the squabbles in bedroom and bathroom. Perfect. Having stagehands on stage during the performance, not just during scene changes (if any), reacting along with audience members, would be hilarious. Yes, yes, let's add stagehands under Character List. ”
  • My Summer of Cypress Gardens (Monologue) by Donald E. Baker
    16 Jan. 2023
    “ For those who never grew up in the South during Jim Crow, Baker's monologue will leave a lasting impression on you. A recollection of a family vacation before the days of Disney World, a white gay senior reflects on childhood along the countryside, down the highways, reflecting on the ugliness of segregation. Honest, candid, all told with great description.

  • Orbit: A Monologue by Rebecca Kane
    13 Jan. 2023
    “ The pacing, the thought process of this character, the unfolding of backstory is perfect, believable ,absorbing. Heartbreaking monologue on mourning. A great monologue for a festival on motherhood or mourning. ”
  • Untapped (short) by Matt Cogswell
    7 Jan. 2023
    “ I laughed nonstop. These fleeting app convos are spot-on, capturing perfectly through imperfect language so much about gay hookup culture. It's sexy, silly, and serious. ”
  • THE BEEKEEPER (A MONOLOGUE) by Deborah Linehan
    31 Dec. 2022
    “ I love this poetic monologue. A celebration of bees, their benefit to us, their beauty. We need environmental monologues like this more often. ”
  • Sweet Sweet Christmas (a monologue) by Scott Sickles
    27 Dec. 2022
    “ It's a combination of funny and sad. You laugh but the more Lindsay speaks to pug, the more you think about people like her on the holiday season, locked inside unable to celebrate like others for reasons most people don't know. Using diabetes as a way to focus on the larger subject and theme is a surprising one. Makes you think about Lindsay on the other holidays... ”
