  • Asher Wyndham: Winner

    This winning play eviscerates white privilege that still prevails in the theatre world. If you're a white playwright and hold any of Harvard's views, you're on the wrong side of theatre practice in America. This is the kind of play about theatre that forces us to have a conversation, even if it's uncomfortable. Well done!

  • Asher Wyndham: I Love Avocado Toast!

    Don't dismiss this as some slight comedy on privelged Gen-Z gurrls. It's soo much more - I LOVE AVOCADO TOAST! is satire that perfectly captures vapid girl power in the age of Instagram. It's theatre in a Barbie House with Real World-performativity showcasing cultish group-think that makes you think harrrrd about legit stuff like - What kind of female friendship is best? Is there a toxic strain of feminity? What is this play saying about girls and consumerism, materialism, and the Internet?
    Or maybe I'm being too heady? Whatever your interpretation, there's no denying it's so much fun!

  • Asher Wyndham: A Refugee Lives to Survive

    A heartbreaking monologue on an African refugee about surviving on charity that forces us to think is that enough. How do we address injustice and systemic violence to improve the lives of the most unfortunate?
    This should be included in any festival on refugees and undocumented immigrants.

  • Asher Wyndham: The Extraordinary EB-1 (The Title Run of Edgar Bolaños)

    What makes someone extraordinary? What about their dreams, pursuits, and work makes them extraordinary? With a balance of violence and tenderness, toughness and heart, Gonzalez's boxing play makes us ask those questions. It also takes this genre to new imaginative heights, moving us to empathize with all Latinx dreamers NOW and ponder about this thing about called the American Dream.
    If you're a fan of THE GREAT WHITE HOPE and THE ELABORATE ENTRANCE OF CHAD DEITY, you should check out Gonzalez's play. Better, collaborate with him on developing this work and getting it produced!

  • Asher Wyndham: CrossTalk

    This goofy play really makes you think about our dependency on technology, especially smartphones.
    How is the gadget in your hand, the device that's sucking up most of your time, an extension of you? What does your relationship with technology say about you, your weaknesses, insecurities, flaws ?
    This play should be a hit at any comedy festival across the country. It's ridiculous, but a little frightening because you see yourself in this play.

  • Asher Wyndham: The Roquefort Revelation

    A short Proustian monologue with cheese. An intriguing thought process in action, served with morsels of insight and memories.

  • Asher Wyndham: Murderer

    Yeah, there's some serious to this, but it's ridiculous fun. Another winning monologue for teen, just right for competition. An actor will have fun creating this character!

  • Asher Wyndham: A small breach in protocol at Big Rick's Rockin' Skydive Academy

    An unexpected comedy that's heartfelt and funny, physical and theatrical, poetic and highly imaginative. If you hear anyone diss ten-minute plays as just simple entertainment, not as important as full-lengths, as nothing but forgettable skits, then let them read this incredible play by Hirsch.

  • Asher Wyndham: Webster's Bitch (One-Act)

    Rarely do short plays develop more than two characters and their viewpoints as skillful as Bircher in this play. This play is laughtastic (is that such a word?) while debating the usage of particular b-word in the English language. Highly recommend for college actors new to acting - maybe for an acting scene - and any comedy showcase.
