Great 10-minute play. Truly funny with nice twist at the end. He/Him/His…

Fast-paced, funny, and thought-provoking. MLM is for Murder illuminates and strikes at the heart of pyramid schemes, cult behavior, and the angst of educated stay-at-home moms. Highly recommended.

A family-friendly holiday-themed play that matches Holly, a hyper-active Christmas fanatic, with a crotchety old guy pressed into Airbnb service by his big-hearted grandson supported by a scotch-swilling nun. The grandfather and nun are fun characters, and senior actors will enjoy sinking their teeth into those roles. Holly has more than one Christmas wish come true, just not what she anticipated.

Richly textured look into the world of depression-era Hollywood screenwriting through the lens of an unlikely pair of uncredited writers – a cynical veteran with a pickled liver and a young NYC playwright forced into servitude by vicissitudes of the times. Script could be launching pad in a writing class to explore key topics from the essence of story (references to a multitude of classics from Greek theatre to early Hollywood films), dialogue that hits the right notes to reveal complexities of characters and their choices, and a finale that gives a tender smack on the side of the head.

A compassionate and humorous take on really difficult issues – the onset of dementia and the sacrifices we make for love. This play has some delicious, distinctly-drawn roles for mature actors. I liked it a lot! Lache pas la patate! Don’t give up the potato!

Marigold’s a runner who may have become immune to the effect of endorphins that create a runner’s high. Or, has she? What were her intentions? Or, did she intend anything at all? And who really is the victim here? Read this suburban mystery to find out!

Loved this spoof (or is it?) of the interplay between critics/judges for a reading at a theatre conference. Reminiscent of the audience comments a playwright’s likely to hear during a talk-back, but in this case, the critics have a history. They display their pomposity, lack of insight, and cheek when making inane suggestions to the playwright who can’t get a word in edgewise. The slow reveal is perfect.

Great fun! As a male named Kim, it’s been important for me to develop confidence in my manhood. I’ve wondered what it would be like if penis packages were as readily discerned in men as breast size is in women. This great play sheds light on the question with snappy, witty dialogue between the girls and their mom.

Humorous juxtaposition – a florist and a butcher – and a seemingly schizophrenic proprietor. Great imagery, both visual and audio. Sparky’s character really added spark with just a couple lines and brief appearances. Excellent ten-minute play.

Great adult fun. Fast-paced. Intriguing characters. Comedic gems really sparkle.
