    A David and Goliath tale that affirms the kids are indeed alright.
  • Thoughts and Prayers
    8 Aug. 2021
    This short play packs a whole lot of heartbreak and deep soul-aching questions within its six pages. It is deftly topical and necessary.
  • The Thought Doesn't Count
    8 Aug. 2021
    A lovely scene that deftly delves into such an intimate and vulnerable discussion so many people have had in private about a topic that doesn't get talked about enough. Plus some prop comedy!
  • Shabbat Shalom, Singles
    8 Aug. 2021
    A charming and funny short play with a satisfying ending!
  • Rekidk (short)
    8 Aug. 2021
    A truly disarming piece which effectively through form and content speaks to the weirdness of being on the internet in the early aughts and how the quickly changing nature of online culture and our own selves can come back to haunt us.
  • Mother Earth Day
    8 Aug. 2021
    A really effective use of world building as metaphor. So many themes and injustices are packed into this short play, it feels full and rich while being concise and compact.
  • Macht Frei
    8 Aug. 2021
    I haven't been able to stop thinking about this play since I first read it a few months ago. It is brilliant, incisive, and visceral while managing to be both funny and devastating. It is also so beautifully theatrical, with a masterful use of visual elements that any creative team would be lucky to take on. Would love to see this produced one day soon!
  • Lifestyle Content (short)

    Timely and witty commentary on the endless and absurd drive towards productivity and positivity in the face of disaster.
  • House Of A Negro. Funny...
    7 Aug. 2021
    A haunting exploration of three people's separate pandemic experiences, the performativity of code switching, and the agony of not being seen. This piece feels like a time capsule of early 2020 and still speaks resoundingly to enduring themes and realities, resonating back to Kennedy's original play, through the present, and into the future.
  • Hot Air

    A sweet and funny look at what it means to be irrelevant and on which traditions we keep and why.
