  • Bram Hartman: And All the Birds Loved Her (audio/radio play)

    An absolutely stunning piece about the love a man has for their child. How do we react when the perfect vision we have doesn’t end up “perfect?” This play tenderly shares this moment. Ultimately it’s a story of love, the sacrifices we make for it, and the ways we are grateful for needing to make the sacrifices in the first place. Well done!

  • Bram Hartman: A Single F*cking Retweet

    A perfect zoom play! We don’t honor our teachers enough and the viral reactions by the students in this play amplifies that. This play, excellently, dives us into what happens when life outside of the classroom enters the classroom. This piece would be very easy to produce and provides very meaty roles for both characters. Bravo!

  • Bram Hartman: Forgive Us Our Debts

    A very endearing scene, navigating from a place confusion and concern to a friendly connection. The humor is light, even given a sad subject. Easy to produce and would be appreciated by an audience.

  • Bram Hartman: Cranberry

    A truly captivating short play! I wasn't expecting the ending, but it was so right for this work. BDSM isn't something everyone has a level of comfort with and I think Sapio does a good job at playing on that vulnerability. A great piece for two actors, allowing both humor and serious chops to shine.

  • Bram Hartman: It's Getting Dark

    Well written, quickly gets in the action and puts our characters in a very scary situation. The audience will question whether they choose to take that hike or head to the movies next time. The pacing was spot on and didn't give away too much, leaving the audience to really wonder...

  • Bram Hartman: Debating

    A sweet and charming short play that highlights the dynamic young queer people thrust upon themselves in potentially awkward scenarios. Andrew builds up a belief in his head, which turns out to be opposite when Colby turns out to be much more than just a jock. Well written and a great piece for all three actors!

  • Bram Hartman: Bingo, the Birthday Clown

    What a tour de force! Written impeccably well! The audience doesn't know whether he's off his rocker or navigating grief for a lost friend. He clearly brings some baggage, but still shows up for the memory of his friend, a noble effort. I think an actor could have great fun with this piece.

  • Bram Hartman: A Richer Understanding

    A beautiful scene about what we are able to learn if we just listen, even when visiting an exciting new place. Lawing writes in a very full way so that we can relate to both characters. We end up cheering for Oscar and hoping he can get the experiences he longs for, he's one of the good ones. This piece would lead actors to shine with this subtle, but impactful script.

  • Bram Hartman: Counter Programming (Monologue)

    Funny, quick witted, and conversational pacing make Sandy's version of their yearly undertaking an enjoyable one. Not sure where to push or where to pull when facing consistent sell out audiences, truly puts Sandy at a cross roads. The piece is super adaptable for any actor and would allow them to show a range of emotions and successfully so!

  • Bram Hartman: Best Interests

    Multiple instances of laughing out loud really held me through this piece. The mother and son clearly share a very close relationship, but even within their closeness there are things unsaid. Hoke captures very serious topics, but handles them casually and in a relatable way, gripping the audience member to have no choice but to be invested in this story.
