  • Stay for Dinner by Becky McLaughlin
    27 Sep. 2019
    “ A romance blooming amongst the horror and gore of a haunted house display. What's not to like? I thought it was simple, effective and above all, charming. The visuals alone make this worth staging in multiple venues, just to see how different places would interpret it. Becky McLaughlin has written a winner here. ”
  • The Fly by Brad Sytsma
    25 Sep. 2019
    “ A nice reminder to us playwrights that although dialogue is king, we need to make the play visually interesting too. A nice silent treatment (save for the buzzing) for a gifted physical comedian. ”
  • God Forbid (a three minute play) by Mark Harvey Levine
    25 Sep. 2019
    “ In a short 3 pages, Mark Harvey Levine, spirals you down the rabbit hole of the ridiculous circular arguments that gun owners tell themselves, perfectly pointing out why any sort of sane gun control in this country is completely beyond our reach. God forbid we should try... so to speak. ”
  • DARK MATTER- A TEN MINUTE SCI-FI PLAY by Donald Loftus
    25 Sep. 2019
    “ I loved the slow build up throughout the piece. Loftus has created a fun little "Body-Snatchers" style play that has a great payoff at the end. Creepy and smile-inducing at the same time. ”
  • Kafka in an Above Ground Pool by Renee Schilling
    24 Sep. 2019
    “ As weird and entertaining as the title sounds. I don't know what kind of cough syrup Ms. Schilling was taking before writing this, but I want some! I loved it and would like to see someone produce this. ”
  • Becky's Xmas Wish by Ashley Lauren Rogers
    24 Sep. 2019
    “ I laughed out loud multiple times reading this. Right up my alley, and will be for anyone with a dark sense of humor. A perfect 10 minute play! ”
  • I'm Just a Kid by Chris Gacinski
    24 Sep. 2019
    “ This monologue hits fast but lingers with you. In a way, this points out we're all somewhat guilty here. We may not have ever pulled a trigger, but we've all done something akin to what the boy points out. By excluding people, we deny their existence. And this is a result. Powerful. ”
  • Santa Doesn't Come to the Holiday Inn by Elyzabeth Gregory Wilder
    23 Sep. 2019
    “ A wistful reminder that Santa can still come on Christmas but that doesn't mean he comes for everyone. I liked the realism portrayed here but was sad for the couple. Messy, but heartfelt. Would love to see this produced. ”
  • Got a Light? by Jean Koppen
    23 Sep. 2019
    “ What a fun little read! The biggest compliment I can give it, is that I wished I'd had this idea. ”
  • /ärt/ by Steven G. Martin
    20 Sep. 2019
    “ Having taught an art class for a short time, I was rolling on the floor laughing at Steven Martin's 10 minute masterpiece. Nothing could be more dead on when judging art, and the absolute silliness of pretending to be objective about it. ”
