  • Debra A. Cole: MEMORY by Michele Clarke
    “

    Terrifying. It's funny what can trigger good or bad memories... a smell, a sound... a house that holds secrets from the past. MICHELE CLARKE has written a short play that packs a real punch.

  • Debra A. Cole: The Opposite of ERSTWHILE by Mathew Green
    “

    Stop at any small town McDonalds anywhere in rural Kansas, and you'll find men just like these... sipping coffee, swapping lies, and sometimes... getting close to real and honest talk about their lives. Men need friends as they age, and these three are priceless. JASPER is a FABULOUS character that a seasoned actor would LOVE bringing to life.

  • Debra A. Cole: Erstwhile by Philip Middleton Williams
    “

    PHILLIP MIDDLETON takes a recent scandal... one as old as time itself for some in power... and gives the audience a little cheeky wink. These unemployed men? It's too late for one... and quite honestly... probably too late for the other as well.

  • Debra A. Cole: this friday doesn't work by Samantha Oty
    “

    SAMANTHA OTY nails the issue right now... injustice all around us, yet those who are ready to fight for what is right have their own issues and struggles... like rent. The system is rigged, and those who want accountability are the only ones paying.

    What a charming short play about a very big topic... religion... and how younger generations are making their own path. LOVELY.

    What a BEAUTIFUL two-hander with two seemingly very different people who find common ground in these troubled times. ADAM RICHTER has written a piece that small festivals will adore.

    “

    WHAT A FABULOUS monologue! SOUCY gives us a creative and delicious new way to talk about different faiths... and lack thereof. These days, we need more pieces like this - open and thoughtful.

    Hauntings = Love... what a beautiful way to look a the concept. SOUCY knows the paranormal, yet in this short piece, he offers another approach to communication with the dead. FABULOUS!
