  • An Apéritif [a 1-minute play] by Steven G. Martin
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ Absolutely chilling. There is so much more to this one minute than the printed dialogue alone can share. Two seasoned actors would devour this minute and leave the audience terrorized. ”
  • A Tragedy Of Owls by John Mabey
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ ABSOLUTELY devastating, powerful, and inspirational. If only all of us could be as brave as those who fight for the rights of others over their own self interests. I leave this poignant short play wanting to know more, and that is highest regard I can imagine for a playwright. BRAVO, John Mabey. ”
  • The Bestseller at Fifty by Ivan Faute
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ Wow! So much subtext beautifully integrated into this powerful short play by IVAN FAUTE. Families are complicated, and families of worshipped authors are rumored to be even more so. The banter between two of the three siblings is natural, witty, and absolutely human. Will they? Won't they? It doesn't matter. Whatever the answer, they will face it like they always have... without him. ”
  • BOX OF TEETH by Tori Rice
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ As a former educator, I know Tim. I've taught so many amazing Tims. A beautiful and loving Tim like this one is exactly what Leigh needed at this raw moment to find the order, reasurance, and dignity for which she was searching. The humor is well timed. The emotions are natural. The humanity is real. WONDERFUL! ”
  • Life's Worth by Zack Peercy
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ Father/Child relationships can be tough, especially when things are unsaid, undone, and unrealized. This this short play by ZACK PEERCY shares the moments when an entire life's worth comes down do a single box. The flexibility of gender casting adds beautiful possible layers to an already poignant reminder that every moment counts. ”
  • I'M FAT! (Short Play) by Tom Cavanaugh
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ RELATABLE AND SURPRISING... This witty and pointed short piece by TOM CAVANAUGH had me rooting for Amanda and ultimately connecting with Kit. In our diet obsessed world, I'M FAT is a true breath of fresh air that will connect with anyone who has experienced body shaming. ”
  • Sugar Momma by Elena Naskova
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ Hilarious! A playwright will find his/her/their muse anywhere it presents itself...and in this delightful short play by ELENA NASKOVA, a muse comes in the way of a sugar momma who knows exactly what she wants. Sadly, this playwright knows what he needs and wants too... and these varied desires do not connect. ”
  • AUCTIONEER: A MONOLOGUE by Asher Wyndham
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ This fast-paced and all too real monologue by ASHER WYNDHAM will bring out the rage in many who hear it... sadly, for others, it's just another day where weapons of mass destruction are seen as God-given rights. In the right hands, this poignant piece will leave audiences speechless... better yet... angry and ready to act. ”
  • Old Girl by John Adams
    15 Apr. 2023
    “ Absolutely stunning. This tight two-hander will give audiences all the big feels. Regret, blame, and ultimately redemption make this short play by John Adams relatable to everyone who has ever loved and lost. ”
  • THE PANTHEON WARS: LATE TO THE PARTY by Monica Cross
    10 Apr. 2023
    “ So glad to see this as the play of the day on NPX. FINALLY the battle I have waited for is brought to life in this one-minute delight by MONICA CROSS. I could see an entire one act around these two worlds colliding. LOVED IT. ”
