  • 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.

  • Asher Wyndham: Paper City Phoenix

    If you enjoyed the out-of-this-world-meets-real-world aspect of Priscilla Dreams the Answer from the same playwright, you will enjoy Paper City Phoenix. Dark comedy that is silly but also serious with its exploration of grief in a virtual-meets-reality landscape. Surprising images on almost every page.

  • Asher Wyndham: THE BUTCHER

    A play that cuts deep emotionally and intellectually. The difference between authenticity and fake in respects to faith is examined, as well as belief versus hope, reason versus craziness. The playwright cuts deep into these characters like a butcher with a knife. Characters that I haven't seen on the page and stage are brought together in this satisfying play.

  • Asher Wyndham: Dogs in the Debris

    A touching play on the difficulty of moving on after losing so much. The conflict between mother and daughter intensifies with raw emotion, totally believable. A great play for female actors. Check it out, while I check out the other plays by Oliveira...

  • Asher Wyndham: Airdrop

    A powerful play on torture and suppression of human rights under a totalitarian regime. If you enjoy Brecht's plays, Pinter's Mountain Language, and Martin McDonagh's Pillowman, you should find this play just as riveting as the works by those masters. Bravo. PRODUCE THIS PLAY!
