  • Asher Wyndham: Fruity Cereal Mummy (a monologue)

    I don't know what's in Weaver's breakfast cereal but I'd like a bite!
    When Weaver doesn't take himself seriously, it's a lot of fun. I would love an evening of Weaver monster monologues!

  • Asher Wyndham: FINDING HELP (a 10 minute play)

    O'Neill-Butler never disappoints with her short plays. You can always count on her for big laughs and something that touches your heart. This one is another winner.
    If you're running a theatre for seniors, you should have O'Neill-Butler's plays on your radar.

  • Asher Wyndham: The Age of Understanding or, The Character of Dad

    As with his other plays, Gonzalez seems to slow time down for us. He creates a space for intimacy and introspection, for probing trauma and dealing with the present and preparing for the difficult future. Honest writing on manhood, masculinity, and fatherhood that you can't ignore. Necessary theatre right here.

  • Asher Wyndham: The Wrap Up

    Busser uses Egyptian myth and setting to create a workplace comedy that perfectly satirizes American capitalism. If you're producing a festival on workplace comedy, consider this one.

  • Weaver always creates an unexpected spectacle - through the simpliest props -- for his monologues.
    Most monologues have no props and not much physicality. The emotional life of his characters is revealed through their action - in this case, the act of peeling potatoes.
    It's a heartbreaking monologue that really makes you think about the economic reality of Americans right now.
    I would love to see the character Andi in a longer play.

  • Asher Wyndham: Alligator (a monologue)

    Weaver always surprises me with his monologues when most monologues do not.
    A monologue perfect for adult or kid. No set necessary or something to suggest a golf course (maybe some rolled-up astro-turf?)
    This would be a good monologue for an actor to play with the space, interact with the audience (as if they are golfers!), showcase their physicality and comic chops.
    It could be played for laughs or not. This one has bite.

  • Asher Wyndham: Nerve

    With unexpected theatricality, this date play like no other gives us lovestruck fools that will surprise and charm your audience. There are many points in the play where you may recognize yourself in these two characters -- their deep flaws and crazy personalities, their desires, their frustration, their screw ups are like your own.

    Easy to produce cray-cray rom-com that you should consider for your theatre, college or

  • Asher Wyndham: How to Keep Teens from Doing the Devil's Tango - a Monologue on Sex Ed

    I wanted to High-5 the playwright after reading this. This monologue's eye-opening truths about sex really puts abstinence-only sex-ed to shame. And presents a winning argument through sick humor.
    This would be a fun monologue for any festival on education and/sex or a parent who happens to be an actor could give it at a PTA (haha).
