  • Debra A. Cole: THE ADULT TABLE - a monologue FACING FEBRUARY 2026 - #19 - BOUNDARIES

    As the adult who always volunteers to sit the with kids at holidays, even after mine is grown, I agree... the adults are boring. We need more pieces for actors with special needs to perform. Their stories are rich and ready to be heard. Thank you, D. Lee Miller.

  • Debra A. Cole: I'm Absolutely Not Sharing My Chocolate

    This honest monologue captures the selflessness of mothers everywhere. LOU JONES reminds us to set those boundaries... even if they are baby steps toward true self-care.

  • Debra A. Cole: Rendezvous

    So many levels... this is terrifying. The interaction between a John and a professional seems innocuous until you realize that years of repression and a lack of communication may have pushed him to a point of... crisis. WOW!

  • Debra A. Cole: The Old Railroad

    I adore ANYTHIING written by Scott Sickles, and this is no exception. Audiences will feel like they have known these two for years. The holidays are about celebrating the past as well as the present, and this short play is just lovely.

  • Debra A. Cole: LIGHTS UP!

    I had the pleasure of hearing this read in the Playwright's Thriving Facing February 28 Plays Extravaganza. Hilarious contrast of ego and natural talent. Bravo, Jack Levine.

    What a tough last meal. LOU JONES shines a light on a family is real crisis... sounds like they've been there for years, and the check for that dysfunctional meal now needs to be paid. Audiences will love unraveling the twisted dynamics of this intense short play.
