  • I Have Never Met Matthew Weaver But Here's A Play About Him Anyway - Monologue
    30 Oct. 2021
    We even have things to say about someone we've never met -- but isn't that what social media is about? Leave it to Elisabeth Giffin Speckman to take the tiniest thread of connection and to riff on how our society functions and the losses and gains of this situation.
  • A Drink with Myself
    30 Oct. 2021
    They say the best conflicts are between equals and you can't become any more equal than in A DRINK WITH MYSELF. Daly has written a short and tough muscular play about self-image. It's sharp and to the point. Well done!
  • Gamma Girls to the Rescue
    30 Oct. 2021
    Julie Zaffarano's GAMMA GIRLS TO THE RESCUE offers us a piece of friendship we don't often see - how to fix a disappointment between life long friends. A disappointment within yourself. This friendship whose life was full of lesser bungie jumps is moving and surprising. Well done, Zaffarano.

  • POULTRY ... PLEASE!
    30 Oct. 2021
    As a new bystander to the vegan world, I laughed at this family Thanksgiving - complete with 'cheater gravy'. You can't help but think of the 'faux' remarks by the family catching up with each other in Vivian Lermond's 'Poultry.. Please!' This play is funny - and not 'faux' funny. The real thing.
  • Invasion
    30 Oct. 2021
    O'Grady's frolic into a one-minute look at how the pandemic looks to others, is a ray of light the world we live in. Fun.
  • 6 Feet Apart
    30 Oct. 2021
    The new preamble to shopping! Dana Hall's 6 FEET APART shines a light on the humorous side of Covid -- the hoops we must jump through to leave our own home and enter a public space. And it gives us a new reason for mall riots. Funny, and not, well done.
  • Stay Awhile
    30 Oct. 2021
    Stay Awhile by Dana Hall is more than just a universal look into grief but also a look into grievers. Those left behind. A daughter worries about her mother response to her husband's death. It is sad, helpless and even terrifying. We're not sure if this is grief or dementia setting in - but the mother is dealing in a way that could ultimately be harmful and this thorn exacerbates the daughter's own grieving. This is very real and very well written. Kudos to Hall.
  • Trapped in Chop Suey
    9 Oct. 2021
    Lee R. Lawing sets us down, smack in a New Year's Eve curse! Squabbling doppelgangers, Mary and Marie, disentangle a meeting that, shall we say, will never be forgotten? A fun time period, characters and the curse bring us the charm to this play. Nicely done.
  • PEDRO'S PATIO
    9 Oct. 2021
    In Pedro's Patio, Vivian Lermond set up this poor couple for the worst. When you're handed fly swatters before you even order? With strong characters and dialogue this blooms into a fuller picture of something worse... Or does it? Todd and Angie have much to be thankful for - including Lermond writing about them!
