  • Asher Wyndham: Howard (a ten minute play) by Mark Harvey Levine
    “

    Levine comes up with some of the wackiest plays, but always has something important to say about life and relationships, and it never feels slapped on/forced.
    This is another winner.

  • Asher Wyndham: P is for... by Cassie M. Seinuk
    “

    Another winning ten-minute play. Again, Seinuk surprises with a sexual situation that explores tension and intimacy in exciting ways with believable dialog.
    This porn-positive play would be a hit at your comedy showcase.

  • Asher Wyndham: GWEN HAS A DATE (a 10 minute comedy) by Marj O'Neill-Butler
    “

    Delightful. A perfect ten minutes for your festival. One of my top ten 10 minute plays on NPX.

  • Asher Wyndham: Chuck's Mom by Greg Vovos
    “

    We blame the parents for a kid's wrongdoing or even death by drugs, but are they always to blame?
    What responsibility do we have as a community to prevent these deaths by drugs?
    This play doesn't directly ask those questions, but the story will inspire a conversation.
    Vovos captures fragility and anger, full-bodied, soulful mourning that will leave your heart heavy.
    The opening monologue would be a winning monologue for an auditioning or competiting actor.
    Another excellent play by Vovos that deserves productions.

  • Asher Wyndham: Leaves by Emily Hageman
    “

    Hageman's play invites not just kids to a conversation about family violence, but all familes, the entire community. She doesn't write just to entertain, but enlarge your heart and mind.
    Producing this for kids and adults may seem inappropriate for schools, but it's important. It must be produced now. It's kind of dangerous, but that's Hageman for you -- she doesn't play it safe.

  • Asher Wyndham: Mothers Milk by Kirt Shineman
    “

    Queer producers and directors: check out this fairy tale. If you're looking for something large in scope, not derivative, not an adaptation of a classic, read this now. It's like Candy Land with drag, acid and cotton candy, WTF-crazy like a Dr Suess story but with breast milk.

  • Asher Wyndham: Scavengers by Cody Goulder
    “

    I had the pleasure reading drafts of this play many years back.
    One of best dystopian plays I've read. It's funny even when it's most bleak, it's non-stop riveting, and one of the best ensemble of crazies I've read.
    A stage designer would have a fun time creating the lair.

    Through spot-on satire this playwright indicts a portion of American medicine that still shames trans people. Reminds us, demands from us to continue the fighting.
    Look forward to reading more from this playwright.

  • Asher Wyndham: Den Bla Planet by Liz Dooley

    Even with the threat off-stage, Dooley slows it down for us and lets her characters develop as fully-realized, emotionally-complex characters right before our eyes. Amazing.
