  • Asher Wyndham: You Can't Kiss Me But I Can Kiss You

    Where's our erotic, sex-positive kinky theatre? Start here.
    You might find some sick pleasure in this. Or humor. Another unexpected treat from Weaver.
    I'd love to be in the front row, crossing my legs.

  • Asher Wyndham: Status Update

    Another perfect ten-minute from Gatton. Reminds us that drama at this length isn't some diversion or slight entertainment. It's serious art that mirrors our own private tensions and concerns.

  • Asher Wyndham: Grown-Ass Louis

    An unexpected comedy on mourning, equally funny and poignant. Some great challenges for costume and prop designers. A lot happens, plenty of surprises, color, poetry, heartache -- this would be a great addition to any short play festival.

  • Asher Wyndham: failure - a monologue

    With humor and heartbreaking honesty, Morris forces the non-plus-size audience members to reflect on their role in fat-shaming culture.
    This would be perfect for college theatre interested in theatre for social change or any professional theatre interested in body issues.
    Great work.

  • Asher Wyndham: The Kiss (a ten minute play)

    A thoughtful, playful, delightful comedy that has perfect structure.
    Simple story concept that reveals complexity.
    If you're new to playwriting, you need to invest your time studying Levine's short plays.

  • Asher Wyndham: Storm Watch

    Shya's crisis and her fear of death is something almost any audience member can relate to.
    Goodwin's comparison of death and destruction outside (by storms, tornados) and inside (by mass shootings and deaths) is not a stretch. The country is kind of in an tornado alley of extreme weather and violence, so many random deaths that really make us question our faith and country.
    How do we remain strong while watching the storm?
    Great work!

  • Asher Wyndham: Zucchini

    Unexpected surprises and fun for kids in the world of this play and also for kids in the audience.
    Kid stage designers will have fun with this one.
    Whatever Weaver is adding to his zucchini recipes I want to know!

  • Asher Wyndham: Athena

    The female friendship in this play naturally develops, never rushed, with seriousness, intelligence, and humor.
    Immediately compelling and thoroughly satisfying, this play is a must read for any theatre interested in female stories.
    If you're a fan of The Wolves and any recent play about girls in sports, produce this play. If you're a fight choreographer, read this and beg others to produce it.
