    A fun play that looks a historical event through a modern day lens, filled with interesting characters that are instilled with humanity. Max's dialogue flies off the page - I can't wait to see this play produced.

    A really great, funny and witty play that explores the trials and tribulations of Millenials in a compassionate and smart way. I can't recommend this play highly enough!

    Was completely inspired after seeing a reading of this play at the Great Plains Theatre Conference - strong, nuanced female characters grappling with a complex relationship, funny, witty, moving, Eugenie writes with precision and heart.

    A big bold play with intimate raw moments, Frelmetsch the Maneater is, at its core, a play about two people trying to connect. Matthew's dialogue is realistic and fun, the characters are a joy to watch and the ending is powerful. I'd love to see it produced in all its fantastical glory.

    A delightful, poignant play that is a reflection of contemporary life, Giles has one of the more unique voices for comedy I've ever read.
  • D-Pad (Stage Edition)

    A deeply relevant play about sexism in the video game industry told through a very human lens. Seeing this play at The Great Plains Theatre Conference was a definite highlight. At once funny and heartbreaking, Jeremy has crafted a play that embraces the theatricality of the video game world with a beautiful beating heart at its core.

    I had the pleasure of seeing a reading of this incredible play at The Great Plains Theatre Conference. A story about two sisters, themes of mental illness and environmental science are organically interwoven throughout the fabric of the play to create a powerful story about the things we do to try to save another - even when we need to save ourselves. Strong parts for female actresses. I hope to see this play produced very soon.

    Had the pleasure of seeing a reading of this play at The Jam. I found it to be powerful and daring, a play about power wrapped up in a discussion of gender dynamics that happens organically. Caitlin Saylor Stephens writes with precision so sharp, her words tear you in half.

    A unique family drama not often seen on stage, this play explores difficult questions through the lens of deeply interesting characters who are full of heart.

    A smart, touching and moving play about grief and how we carry our heartache - and how we heal.
