I caught this at the Edmonds Driftwood Players’ Festival of Shorts and it was such a delight! Imagine if "Night at the Museum" got into the dating scene. Fantastic, fun acting opportunities, loads of laughs, and a heartwarming exploration of our shared humanity across the ages.

A charming, heartwarming tale (with some great laugh lines) that brings old world mythology and magic into the modern world. And it even features opportunities for crowd-pleasing stage combat! It packs quite a punch, so to speak, in under 12 pages! Check it out!

A really beautiful and respectful examination of dreams, love, duty, religion, and humanity. It has flavors of Educating Rita but for a modern audience. A fabulous two-hander that will keep audiences talking long after the curtain has fallen!

A mind-bending sci-fi that explores so many questions surrounding AI, healthcare, the need for comfort, and the human experience. It's a little Black Mirror, a little Inside No. 9, but through all the twists and turns, it also has a lot of heart.

There is a raw and visceral thread running through the pages that hooked me immediately. This is a completely unique voice unlike any I've heard before. Great pacing, distinct voices, and a wholly original story. Really exciting work!

An absolutely stunning political thriller. This isn't like any play you've read about this topic before. There are twists and turns along the way that will keep you flipping the pages. I read it in one sitting. This needs to be in every theatre's season.

Absolutely HILARIOUS monologue! The spiral into madness and what pushed this poor teacher over the edge is an absolute delight. If you are or know of a comedic actor needing a vehicle to shine, this is it!

Such a cute, sweet little play! Now I want to hear all the future adventures of Sally, Barb, and Doug! This would be a fantastic piece for a theatres with talented younger performers.

With shades of Beckett and a dash of Monty Python, this charming, heartfelt short is both funny and profound. I could seen an audience eating... gulping... devouring... oh where is that lexicographer when you need one!... it down.

If you are producing an evening of holiday shorts, grab this one immediately! Absolutely hilarious! (And make sure not to skip over the stage directions.) In the words of LOTR, "Daydream" has my sword!
