    The struggle is real. True to his style, Plumridge captures it honestly. Bravo.

  • Nora Louise Syran: A Monogamy of Swans by John Minigan

    I caught the production of this short play on Gather by the Ghostlight. A lovely short piece. Nothing is as it seems, or what we assume and Minigan uses this to perfect advantage to add tension to the story. But really there is only love

    We've all been there. Figuratively anyway. Stuck in the stocks-- or is it...?! Who cares?! It's hilarious. Everyone loves good pipi-caca humor but just can't admit it. Love the sunshine imagery at the end.

  • Nora Louise Syran: Better Latte Than Never by Rachel Feeny-Williams

    Coffee demanding? High maintenance? Never! Coffee is given her fair say on a talk show and we learn all about Claire and her morning habits and infidelities. Snuggling up with other hotties in the mornings, really?! Never fear. A fun short skit that will have caffeinated and decaffeinated audiences on a real buzz.

    A "Lettice and Lovage" type tour to start (I love those!) and then ... all chaos breaks out. A lovely practical modern solution as Kentucky meets County Kent! Great fun ;)

  • Nora Louise Syran: Good Mourning by Christopher Soucy

    Soucy weaves his magic in this beautifully balanced piece. “I don't have to know someone to mourn the loss of them... To feel for those left behind.” Just lovely. The people in this play are, as he would say, "peoplely" and completely relatable. Easy to stage. Bravo.

    Oh, you naughty playwright you! Terrifically fun and infuriating. Easy to stage, fun to act and I can just see the actors playing the waiter and Brett trying to keep straight faces :)

    Totally O.T.T and I giggled the entire way through! (The Joe, Jo, Joe Jr. Jnr, II, III...ridiculousness of it all!)
