  • Kate Danley: THE SUBTLE, SUBLIME TRANSFORMATION OF BENNY V. by Steven G. Martin
    “

    A dazzling exploration of the human psyche! As we all sit in the mire of mediocrity, who has not dreamed of some lightning bolt moment that jolts us out of our rut and propels us into greatness? And who doesn't have the voices trying to push us back into our boxes? The ending is * chef's kiss *!

    RL Stine. Jack Black. Two people I never would have thought to throw on stage together but they fit like peanut butter and jelly! A delightful short that would especially play well with a college crowd. And the ending is so PERFECTLY Stine! A total crowd pleaser!

  • Kate Danley: The Apology Club by Lee Cataluna
    “

    A laugh-out-loud short that takes the faux apology to hysterical heights! Each non-apology just gets better than the one before! Sorry that once you read this, you're going to scramble to try and figure out how to get it on a stage!

    Who wudda thought that a mutual admiration society between Bernie Madoff and Carlo Ponzi could be so charming and delightful? This is a fantastic little short that packs in a education in between laughs! Actors will be killing to play these rolls!

    So funny! It takes all the tropes and just turns them on their head. And the ending is delicious! Would slay at a Halloween festival!

  • Kate Danley: Help! I'm Trapped in a Monologue Written by Matthew Weaver! by Matthew Weaver

    I love a meta play that bends which angle on reality we are witnessing! Such a fun piece with shouts out to familiar playwrights in our community. This would be such an audience favorite in a festival!

    A fascinating history in five pages about a woman I've never heard about before! It packs a punch! Standing ovation to Patricia Middleton for shining a light on a forgotten woman! I now want to learn more!

  • Kate Danley: Deer You by Heidi Kraay

    A quick little Twilight Zone-esque mind-bender that would be a huge hit, so to speak, at a Halloween, sci-fi, or horror fest!

    This does for A Christmas Carol what The Wiz did for Oz! A fabulous script supported by an amazing soundtrack! The perfect remedy for audiences who sigh and say, "Oh... I can't watch A Christmas Carol again..." Along comes this brilliant reimagining. This should be a part of the regular rotation at theatres across the country!

  • Kate Danley: WHITE NOISE by Steven G. Martin
    “

    Bitingly sharp satire and oh so funny! What if you took privilege and turned it into a multi-CD set available for a low, low price? You'd get this piece! I especially appreciated how it used humor to address a topic that can cause some people to seize up and shut down. Laughter allows us to tackle the tough stuff. And this is funny!
