A nostalgia play. We go back to the time when the radio was your connection to your favorite baseball team and one of your biggest heroes was the play by play man: Ernie Harwell for Tiger Fans. Herb Carneal for Twins fans such as me. Classical, trained for AM radio voices that were not only your link to the team but a way for a father to be closer to his sons. Congrats to Mr. Williams for bringing back these memories.

A wacky little play about a father, a daughter and the sport of baseball. Oh, not to mention an errant ball and a legendary announcer. This is a fun ride!

A play for playwrights? Well, sure, but it's more than that. A play for anyone with an artistic side to them. For anyone who knows what it is like to create something and then have others comment on that creation. Another little gem from Philip Middleton Williams!

"One For The Chipper" may be a play about a little league team, but it contains a lot of big league laughs. I swear these characters were old little league teammates of mine! Well done, Adam!

If you are a big sci-fi fan you will really enjoy this mish-mash of nearly every single show you can possibly think of in the multi-verse. And if you're not a sci-fi fan you'll still get most of the references and enjoy it just as much. No new insights on the meaning of life here, just a lot of fun.

A very lovely very heartfelt piece by Philip Middleton Williams. Anyone who has lived life for a while will see and recognize the happiness and sorrow, not to mention the honesty, within it.

I am a fan of plays based on old folktales and fairytales and so I was happy to read this modern, updated version of "The Six Swans." Roberta has a created a thought provoking tale that I am still absorbing after reading it several days ago. Give this one a read. It will stay with you.

I have been a fan of Jacqueline Goldfinger's plays since meeting her at a theatre conference a few years ago. "Edie and Mae" is one of those plays that is hard to define and hard to explain why I like it, but I really do like it. Part folk tale and part 60s absurdism, two women are desperately searching for salvation, and water, so that the world does not end. What is real and what is not? So much is left for the audience to decide.

When reading this I was reminded of the song "Aubrey" by Bread which speaks of a "love that wouldn't bloom." Osmundsen has created the same feeling as that song in this short play. It's not a love story. It's not a break-up story. It's two people feeling alone, even though they are together, and wondering what it all means.

A quiet little "slice of life" play about two men, one older and one younger, who meet one day in a coffee shop. The younger man seems to have been crying and the older man slowly coaxes the story out him. The beauty of the play is that it leaves you eager to know what happens next, and maybe exactly what went on before. Unless Mr. King wants to write some sequels, that is left to our imaginations.
