  • Dan Taube: Home Truth (Ten Minute) by Paul Donnelly
    “

    One of the most powerful aspects of this script is the way in which Donnelly takes a horrific situation and dramatizes the mundane and the ordinary elements of it. The abused wife is doomed, we know it and so does she. Terrifying stuff.

  • Dan Taube: Ask Me Anything by Philip Middleton Williams
    “

    At the end of the play you feel like you know everything and nothing about these characters at the same time. “Ask me Anything” is incredibly mysterious, absurd and maddening all at the same time. A very fun read!

  • Dan Taube: TOILET PAPER by Emma Goldman-Sherman

    A play worthy of its own “dance of discomfort”. A little bit “Doll’s House” and a little bit “Curse of the Starving Class”. Very funny and very topical. Highly recommend it!

  • Dan Taube: THE BET by Jack Levine

    Has a nice hitchcockian feel to it. “Strangers on a train” comes to mind. Plenty of twists and turns and consistently suspenseful in its plotting. Definite thumbs up for me!

  • Dan Taube: Digressions by Chris Gacinski

    A very entertaining read. Very much like a teen comedy movie but with a lot more depth. Lots of twists and turns. Heavy satire on higher education. Which is always fun. Shows a lot of potential for future writing projects. Recommended.

  • Dan Taube: Fairy Christmas by Laura Scruggs

    This play is adorable as Laura Scruggs captures the voices of the children beautifully. A great adaptation but the voice of the adaptor comes out clear and strong. Great roles for children. I highly recommend!
