    I was honored to see this performed at the 2023 William Inge Theater Festival. ANDRA HUNTER has written a short play full of anguish, regret, and forward motion toward a new reality. What an amazing piece for a seasoned actress to bring to life. FireMother speaks to the mother in all of us who questions what would we do in in the same situation.
  • Greetings From Sadsville
    28 Apr. 2023
    I was honored to see this performed at the 2023 William Inge Theater Festival. GREETINGS FROM SADSVILLE is a powerful short play about friendship, shared pasts, and expectations being crushed. I went from laughing one minute to feeling the raw pain of regret the next. ZACH PEERCY masters the art of voice in this moving piece. BRAVO!

    This short play, where a mob daughter finds herself on the run and in the sights of those who hunt her, will absolutely delight audiences. This new approach to a holiday play is pure genius.

    How wonderful it was to hear this short piece by ALICE JOSEPHS in a Sunday playwright's Zoom group. The idea that art and artists can be melded together to created new artificial entities is not only frightening... but it's coming. Artists like Alice should never be melded... She is a true treasure.
  • Handling Temptation

    What would YOU be willing to do for money and power? ASH is faced with a proposition that some would think about... but all should avoid. REX MCGREGOR certainly creates characters that make audiences react, and HANDLING TEMPTATION is great example of his gift as a playwright.

    LOVED seeing this read with Tiny_Theatre! DC CATHRO is a true master of human connections. The layers of this moment are rich and deep - a raw interaction that goes beyond the process.
  • What's in Your Butt? A Monologue
    15 Apr. 2023
    PRICELESS. We should finally take the taboo out of tampons and the monthly cycle, and this monologue by MOLLY CANU is a wonderful place to start. We've all been there, so let's finally talk about it.
  • CRISIS ON A BENCH (a ten minute play)
    15 Apr. 2023
    CORA is the friend we all need in times of crisis. Ella wanted love, but maybe missed the signs that THIS was the wrong one. It took CORA to bring her back to reality. CRISIS ON A BENCH by MARJ O'NEILL -BUTLER created a empowering two-hander for two women to bring to life.

    As a former resident of the great state of Texas, I can feel that BLUEBONNETS is a true Texas love story. Not a love story between two tragically parted paramours, but a love story between father and daughter and a love that "ended" too soon. The most touching moments include Dad calling her June Bug - so natural and tender. CURTIS BARBER not only allows us a glimpse into the past but a glimmer of hope for the future. JUST LOVELY.

    What a gorgeous and artful memory play by BRUCE KARP. The numerous layers are colorful and personal as Larry Kappeloff takes us on the journey that is his life of discovery and truth. Without giving it away, I found myself destroyed by the all too real human result of a beautiful life finally found and acknowledged. JUST LOVELY.
