    A beautiful monologue filled with heart. The imagery is evocative and filled with so much love for the farmer described. Really lovely!

    Totally fun! Totally silly! And I dunno how the playwright was able to channel the inner monologue of a cat so well, but you KNOW this is exactly what they are thinking about us. Well done!

  • Kate Danley: East Of The Sun by Darcy Parker Bruce

    A haunting fairytale that honors the traditional roots of these stories as cautionary tales. The prose is lyrical and poetic, and the whole thing unfolds like a dream.

    A hilarious dark comedy set in an apocalypse. All the things you hate about your coworkers are pinned up against the stakes for survival. I feel like I have worked with all of these characters. Relatable, funny, and so clever!

  • Kate Danley: The Amazing Adventures of Not Batman by Sarah Bowden

    Oh man... as a novelist myself who is constantly trying to stay focused when plot bunnies and shiny things are popping up to distract me, this hit close to home! A funny, charming comedy about the writing process. The struggle to keep (not) Batman out of Amish romance is real! And this ten minute play brings the laughs.

    Take a family drama, add zombies, and stir until hilarious! This gem of a comedy is laugh out loud funny and would be a fantastic addition to an evening of Halloween or horror programming.

    A hilarious play about the creation of the universe which posits the question, "What if it was all just a bunch of gods riffing and trying to one-up each other?" Really fun roles in a piece that is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

  • Kate Danley: THE PANIC DEFENSE by Sam Affoumado
    “

    An absolutely stunning piece based upon real cases where "panic" was used as a defense in court for murdering people of the LGBTQ+ community. Powerful, haunting, moving... There are not enough superlatives. This is an important work worthy of production.

    What a sweet romantic comedy! In these days when so many of us are longing for travel, it sweeps you away to the romance of Paris. Lovely uplifting escapism!

  • Kate Danley: The Deal - 10 Minute Play by Ryan Kaminski

    What a deliciously delightful wicked little play! Filled with Twilight Zone twists and turns, what starts off as a simple meeting over lemonade switches into something else all together. Clean enough to be performed by high school on up, yet so sophisticated and smart. A really gem!
