Wonderful rendition of the magnet of danger to kids - The ominous oogly booglies of a dark night and the hope for bravery. This is every Halloween picture come to life!

What a lot of fun to have on Groundhog Day. Just the kind of play to wipe away the world and give you smiles. Nicely done, Christopher.

A singular woman who is living the life she lives. She is a good mom. But there's always judgement. So tired of hearing what's normal and sad she is judged. Nice work.

A very sweet piece about a a man and a dog and a family tradition. Will it stand in the way of total happiness. I love the love in this!

A really dark piece of work - Horror at the hilt. Usually not my thing but it kept me involved and stunned.

Nothing like finding out Grandma was not who she said! In this funny short, Brandon has given us a nice sister/brother scene with lots of room for fun!

As much as the family repeats of bad jokes, ugly sweaters, a vegetable dish no one eats - are mourned on the happiest of occasions, it's those same moments that rebuild the comfort of traditions that forms the glue in a family. Time is the final ingredient in this that enriches as all and brings us joy. What a comfortable, loving family. Perfect for a holiday festival. Well done, Brent.

Cole slams it home in GRAPES OF LAUGHS - the tales handed down that partly seek a communal laugh but are bigoted at best. The play is written so that those moments where the listener freezes inside and swallows or holds their breath while deciding if they should speak up or let it pass. Cole doesn't let it pass - and it was appreciated about who did speak up. What a very real and necessary play, especially in today's world.

Clean as a Whistle by Julie Brandon is a deceptively simple play that hits us right where it hurts. Which is also what reminds us we’re alive! When we’re ready to live again, we’re ready!

‘Grief’ is a sweet play about a 5 year old coming to terms with loss. It is primal and direct and has much to teach. Nicely done!
