“
A perfect gift of a play, ACTION FIGURES, by Peter Dakutis brings you in at the first moment and surprises us... not ... at the end. Lots of fun. ”

- Arboreal Conquests by30 Oct. 2021“ A one-minute journey into the life of pretend with a kid and a tree is lovely. This world of an open imagination and heart is sadly missing in so many adults. It's a joy to read -- Surely even more a joy to see performed. ARBOREAL CONQUESTS conquered me! ”
- The Anteater by30 Oct. 2021“ No more with Kafka's cockroach -- Enjoy Daniel Guyton's The Anteater, a short, short monologue that brings us Antony who has awakened as an anteater after a life as financial executive. A very funny monologue perfect for an audition! ”
- Begging the Question by30 Oct. 2021“ How nice to recommend a play with two lovely and loving characters asking one of the most important questions! In only one minute Philip Middleton Williams brings you in to this good-natured drama with heart-warming expectations and we are gifted with a surprise ending. BEGGING THE QUESTION is a lovely, fun, play. ”
- Abandonment [a 1-minute play] by30 Oct. 2021“ Steven Martin presents an immediate crisis in faith that is life-altering and maybe shattering - all in a matter of a minute. Sharp and to the point, extremely well done. ”
- A WOMAN IN NEED by30 Oct. 2021“ A tart, saucy put-up-or-shut-up noir play, A WOMAN IN NEED is a twist on your typical noir. Martha Patterson knows her characters but only one 'knows' the other. Nice to see a woman in charge, though she is still presumed to be a woman in need. Nicely done. ”
- Your Gaze (a monologue) by30 Oct. 2021“ This painfully open monologue brings us the frustration of a person with ADHD -ME, addressing YOU. Beautifully terrifying, it represents us all - using the higher hurdles of ADHD - to map the feelings of being desired. So honest. So well written. As Scott Sickles takes the lid off of desire in YOUR GAZE, you will tremble with ME. A beautiful piece. ”
- The Cardinal by30 Oct. 2021“ It's amazing how we see what we want to see, in this case, a miracle. CD Cathro's THE CARDINAL, is a lovely play fraught with expectations we hold most dear. This mother and son, who do not accept each other's core beliefs are thrust into defining themselves and their disagreements and their joys. When we know each other and our dreams, it opens a door possibility. This could be a miracle at that. Beautifully done. ”
- COFFEE MUG by30 Oct. 2021“ I love how Scott Mullen takes the 'smallest' of events, blows it up into a cataclysmic event and sucks the air back out of it - all in the space of a minute. Funny and so well written. Kudos to you, Mullen. ”
