Coffee is an obsession in our culture and the brands that have dominated the market reign supreme. There is a litany of specific standards they must live up to, but at what cost? If customer satisfaction doesn't reach the proper percent, out go the workers. At the end of the day, it's just coffee and humanity comes first. Or at least this makes the case for that. Well done!

A very funny and poignant play about the complicated relationships we have to our animals and our partners. The creation of a new family leads to uncertain territory and we're afraid to lose in the process. A beautiful comedy about loyalty, love and family!

A great look into the dangerous and potentially explosive world of advertising. Alls fair in the game, except when it gets into your marriage. What's a lawsuit between husband and wife? A cautionary tale in letting the market over take you. Funny and well done!

The narrative on this is just fantastic. A great look into the effects of the highs and lows of depression, anxiety, grief, and loneliness on mental health. With the right touches of humor, it's moving and extremely effective. Incredibly moving and well done!

It's one hit after another for Charlie. How much is a girl supposed to take before she breaks? When everything hits the fan, you have to laugh which shows the remarkable therapeutic nature of comedy. Well done!

A heartbreaking and powerful story about the struggle for identity in a world that constantly tries to make you questioning reject who you are. A choice of pretending you're something else or living truthfully which really isn't a choice. Acceptance and pride or self-loathing and years of therapy to correct the damage? Incredibly moving and well done!
