  • D. Lee Miller: Mercy Otis Warren at the Pilgrim Hall Museum, 2028 - Monologue/Solo Short Play by Elisabeth Giffin Speckman
    “

    Mercy Otis Warren is brought to life in a lovely way by the crafty writer Elisabeth Speckman. We see the span of a life, of a museum and of women's rights. It is delicious to watch Mercy become alive as a person. This is a wonderful piece - should be done in museums, classes and of course on stage. For all ages.

    Seniors don't always have the choice of friends - they have who's there. With little time left after weathering the storms of your life you find out who each other is fast. And sometimes there can be a real friendship. Lermond, with a sure hand, lets us see the possibilities.

  • D. Lee Miller: The Change by Glen Dickson
    “

    Like the undoing of a braid, we watch a couple separate their lives into two different strands. Dickson's choice of specifics ring true. In miniature we see the relationship wax and wane. Well done.

  • D. Lee Miller: A Life Enriching Community by Philip Middleton Williams
    “

    Philip Middleton Williams' A LIFE ENRICHING COMMUNITY is a play we rarely see - with an older gay couple - but a story that is universal. It is the humanity of this play that will draw you in to this couple's embrace and make you care. Beautiful work.

  • D. Lee Miller: The Role of the Actor by Ilana Lydia
    “

    I'm not a sci-fi fan, but Lydia always manages to awaken a wide philosophical turn in her plays and The Role of the Actor is no exception. With an unending imagination, Lydia shows that the role in life is more important than the actor.
