  • Asher Wyndham: Tiny Baby

    This little absurd play should be a lot of fun for readers and audience members. Pfeffinger's zany take on the class reunion may be a head-scratcher--and that's a good thing, yes: the play leaves you wondering...what does that teeny-tiny baby mean?

  • Asher Wyndham: Bev.

    A quarrel between sisters in an unusual setting...a kayak in the East Siberian sea. And there's an unusual visitor: a mermaid who doesn't make anything better. Femia thinks outside the box to deal with sisterhood, mourning, and loss.

  • Asher Wyndham: Mirrors

    Perfectly executed short play. Unsettling revelations for readers and audience. A short play that can wreck your heart. Contains some powerful monologues for female actors, perfect for competition.

  • Asher Wyndham: Jane: Abortion and the Underground

    A play that needs to be produced again and again. It's necessary theatre because it captures diverse voices from the early days of abortion rights that could've been lost without these interviews. The structure, a blend of monologues, group scenes, two person scenes, and interviews creates an unforgettable read -- and if produced, an unforgettable time at the theatre.

  • Asher Wyndham: Fossil Lady

    A fascinating little gem of a play. Haas has achieved so much in a short amount of time. We learn about Mary Anning's childhood, her aspirations as a paleontologist, her struggles as a woman in a sexist society. If only she wore breeches.. I would love to see her in a longer work.

  • Asher Wyndham: Snow

    A poignant short play on romance and the longing for connection. It's a bit existential. It's quirky and thought-provoking, with an unconventional structure. It's heartbreaking that I ended up sympathizing with these lonesome hearts. You might start off thinking some of these characters are losers, and then it hits you, realization...

  • Asher Wyndham: TOOLS

    A choreopoem with fight choreography. Feisty, fearless, female.

  • Asher Wyndham: When Briseis Met Chryseis, Or: Love in a Time of Human Trafficking

    From friendship to love, Lashof captures the relationship between Briseis and Chryseis with Sapphic lyricism. The dialog captures painfully their difficult decision in a dangerous world where women are commodities and prizes. I would love to read more plays by Lashof that take place in Ancient Greece.

  • Asher Wyndham: Bed Ride

    Weaver's madcap comedy is fast paced, the antics and scheming leading to a hilarious showdown with characters playing characters, including bird watchers and hit men! The play is silly but it's intelligent: it focuses on how each character, bad or good, is some type of fraud or fake because each has to keep up an illusion. Plenty of surprises under the bed and at the door.

  • Asher Wyndham: KiKi Pineapple Starring In: "Saving the World!"

    5 Stars! Definitely on my list of favorite kid plays. This should be performed at every elementary school in the nation! Zany fun with a powerful message on friendship and what makes us special (our weirdness). If you have a kid in school, have him/her read this play and get the school to do it! Distinct personalities and entertaining conflict created in a short time.
