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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.
