    I agree with Lisa down below and need to hear more stories from Central Park carriage horses. I'm sure they've heard some of the best gossip that there is to hear.

  • Samantha Oty: The Red Ear by John Mabey
    “

    The title of this play piqued my interest right away. Mabey does a great job with how these characters are written, giving them so much life outside the context of the play through this small-town tradition and he also builds so much intimacy between the two though no kiss on the lips is ever shared between the two. Such a gentle portrayal of understanding one another.

  • Samantha Oty: Little Blue Boxes by Megan Tabaque
    “

    COVID was a weird time where we were forced to be separated but found ways to come together when it mattered. One of the best uses of the virtual format I've read.

  • Samantha Oty: The Tragic Tale of a Man Who Fell in Love (with a Bookcase) by Calvin Mills
    “

    In a world where sentient object smut dominates the Amazon charts, this is easily one of the best love stories of our generation.

  • Samantha Oty: You and 250 of Your Closest Friends Have Been Rejected, or, The CC Reply All play Editor by Greg Lam
    “

    Very sad that I'm not among the 250 closest friends because all of these characters seem like a delight to be around. Will always love this playwright community.

  • Samantha Oty: durang family crime scene cleaning service by Ian Donley
    “

    This is a wild ride. What starts as three brothers coming together to deal with the mess their parents left for them (literally), three brothers are confronted by the (literal) ghosts of their past. A genuine family drama that will keep the audience on the edge of their seats and an ending that will have everyone talking in the lobby.

  • Samantha Oty: How to Talk to Your Child About Satan by Daniel Prillaman
    “

    Prillaman knows how to write a great family comedy about kids stumbling on their parents in the worst possible scenario. This play also explains what all those names were in my copy of "Atlas Shrugged." Hail Satan.

  • Samantha Oty: What the Bones Remember by Dana Hall
    “

    Dana Hall's newest addition to her catalogue is the perfect read (or, better yet, production) for anyone looking for something that brings a "Practical Magic" vibe to the stage. Perfect Autumn addition to any theatrical season.

    Tenneat has a real knack for creating realistic characters based in history in a short number of pages.
