“ BBC!? Hello? Suspenseful stage/screen/radio play by Rachel Feeny-Williams calling! The short version was twisty-turny entertainment but the full length weaves you in and out and up and down dark corridors until its satisfying deneument. Murder mystery "fun". ”

“ Thal's play immerses us in the multicultural frenzy and bustling commerce of 17th century Venice -- complete, unlike its "prequel" THE MERCHANT OF VENICE, with its canals! While drawing from Commedia dell'arte's situational comedy, the tale is steeped in tragicomedy as running beneath it all is the ever present lurid antisemitism of Shakespeare's play and the treatment of the character Shylock. Thal "fleshes" out this character, humanizes him and adds moments of levity including my favorite line: "The Inglés wish not to become Escocés. I have seen their plays and they would rather be Italianos." Quite a trip! ”

“ Sweet! I just watched Marcia Eppich-Harris's short play produced by the Indiana Ten Minute Play Festival. Sometimes we all just need a little nudge in the right direction. I laughed out loud at the teen's lack of a "thank you" at the end, but perhaps everything in life does even out because its the couple that are truly the grateful ones.

“ As a mother, a sister, a wife and writer, this play was so intensely relatable. But one does not have to be a woman or hopeful mother to understand the hold that grief, desire, depression, and longing have on us. I was immersed immediately from the start and the story does not let go. It is haunting and yet hopeful; naturalistic in its dialogue and yet darkly poetic. "Whenever there’s unconditional love, they take advantage." Brava, playwright. ”
