In only ten minutes, Shineman gives so much. It's a lovely play, fluid and poetic, about commitment to life and for two women that most people don't know about.
Shineman is a playwright that producers and directors need to pay more attention to -- every play is wholly unqiue, captivating, and emotionally and intellectually stimulating.

This little play for elementary school kids is marvelous. And it ends with a moment of pure joy for new friends. The themes on sharing and cooperation, persistence and patience are great reminders for kids.

Carnes achieves what some great comic artists do in unbearable times -- give you utter nonsense to make you laugh at people in power.
Using fragments that mocks Trump's awkward use of the English language on and off Twitter, dressing him in the garb of Richard III, Carnes has created a clown that will have your audience laughing. Or maybe grossed out in disgust.
Highly recommended for an festival attacking 45's administration or political-themed festival.

Can folks like Gina from the Georgia or any place rural these days make it big? Or does living paycheck to paycheck make that always impossible? With a dynamite spirit, desperate and struggling Gina thinks she's got what it takes -- and you'll love her for it.
I'd love to read what happens next!
Recommended for any festival showcasing dramatic shorts.

The evolution from strangers on a train to friends, slowly opening about each other's lives, is perfectly-paced, revealing secrets with unexpected intimacy.
Would make a great scene for beginning actors.

I had the pleasure of attending a reading of this play at the 38th Annual William Inge Festival.
An inventive play, at times harrowing, other times ridiculously funny, that surveys our American past and present historical responses to slavery, leaping beyond that to an imagined future of slavery, 800 years on the page and stage -- Kara Lee Corthron insists on a difficult theatre to force us to talk and, hopefully, deal with our sh*t and change it now so we don't repeat ourselves.

This dark comedy is so NOW it'd be a shame if you're not reading or producing it.
This engrossing play makes you think about the f'd-up societal and religious expectations for girls and ideas on their adolescence and sexuality, here and globally.
What does an American and international girl look like outside the box?
Set mostly in a basement, this highly imaginative play's action surprisingly never lets up.
It's got wise-cracking dolls, a lot of them that makes this play as much fun for puppeteers and audiences as Avenue Q.

A comic twist on the beloved religious icon that will have you laughing from beginning to end. And then it will make you think real hard about what you would do if you were in the executioner Gi with the lighter.
When it matters, even if it's going to cost you something, are you willing to make a difference?
It may make you think about your own place in history, in cultural movements, in the community, in spaces of faith, etc.
Highly recommend this for your showcase.

Every line had me cracking up.
Having adult actors play middle schoolers will amp up the comedy.
Don't dismiss this as just a silly play about potty language.
This will be a hit at your comedy showcase.

A tight, kick-ass short play with a surprise that will get your audience applauding and laughing.
If only the catcallers got treated like this every day in the city, the world would be a safer place for women.
