Glamor camping and the paranormal get mashed up in this ridiculous gay hookup comedy.
Loved every absurd moment.

Without stage directions, Lermond let's the actor find the right gestures and movements to bring this character to life. You're with this character every word, every image, slowly as if you're wading through water - and then, surprise, diving.
Lovely.
Consider this for your audition monologue

I read a lot of comedies on NPX, and I don't think anyone makes me laugh as much and so hard as Hageman.
Every play is something special, something original, silly but also serious in a way.
I would love to see this play performed by adults as kids.

This scene is for the past, present, and future. Yes, it says something about nurses right now dealing with coronavirus, but it's for nurses of all time who despite fear and stress commit every day to serve us. A play for true American heros.
Lovely.

WOW. This is probably my favorite monologue about an animal with the actor playing an animal.
This makes you really think about how we treat strays or any animal (dog or cat) separated from their parents and siblings way too young. Really forces you think about an alternative to this.
Short, half a page, but it's impact will last a long time.
Consider this for any festival about pets and animals.

This will be our future romancing and courting, if we continue to destroy the natural world and viruses force social distancing.
It's funny, beautiful, but at the end I was a little sad.
Consider this for any festival about the coronavirus.

Hageman writes a serious play that breaks your heart, but she also writes a ridiculous comedy with more laughs than a Saturday Night Sketch. But with substance.
This DC-inspired play, the second one (in a series, fingers crossed) zooms in on toxic masculinity while at the same being critical of it and contrasting it with moments of bro-romance that reveals the non-toxic -- the feminine.
This would be a great play to see on recorded Zoom. It should go viral!

It gets bonkers just like an office play by Adam Bock. With a workforce that includes an idiot boss, a lazy-ass, an annoying know-it-all, and an underappreciated intern you can count on some ridiculous comedy. Much of the action takes place in an 'office' that's the size of supply closet! Johnson deals with some serious subjects - empathy and grief, responsiblity to others and our own well-being in the 'grand-scheme of things' - which elevate this play beyond a goofy office comedy satirizing corporate culture. Well-done!

Another stellar Valentine's Day monologue - a reminder to get yourself out there and make a connection.
As always, surprising encounters and lessons.
This should be a staple of any showcase of Valentine's Day monologues.

The girls in the audience will love this!
(And me too!)
Reminds you Halloween is a good time to have some naughty fun.
