Make no mistake, this is a horror story. Grounded in reality, ripped from the headlines...a fiscal horror story. This should be made into an educational film for anyone planning to purchase and rent out property.

It's amazing how quickly a lie can become a rumor and build into a monster to destroy already fragile lives. This whole play I was wondering what the truth was. I didn't know what to believe. Therein lies the danger. When you don't know what to believe, you make snap judgements that can ruin reputations and lives. Hilda's Diner really is a mystery story set in Post WWII America. The nation's nerves are shot, but they are ready to rebuild. It's hard to know who to trust and who might be a hidden sniper. A great journey!

The feelings we have when we're young are almost too much to bear. And sometimes the things that happen to us when we're young shouldn't be felt by anyone. These characters are doing their best to find magic in a world that is swiftly industrializing and crumbling at the same time. But myths and magic are distractions, and the darkness that hits these characters when they are trying hard not to feel is more painful than they could have imagined. This is a harsh, yet magical story. There are no answers. But this play is legendary.

We always fail the ones we love the most. And mostly because we love them in OUR way, not in the way they need. It doesn't diminish the love, though. The fact that there is love is special enough. This is a play about love, fear and fighting for the love we have. For a lover, for a child, even for God. This is a lovely poem of a play, open to so much potential in staging and performance. It will take your breath away. Sister Philomena is a powerful character. We should all be lucky to meet her.

This was a perfect script for "Gather by the Ghostlight!" Two very different women with two very different ideas of what makes a "good mother" and the stakes are so high, they are out of this world. Bad pun, but it really does make the argument between Celeste and Natasha that much more intense than a typical internet thread of opinions. Because this baby is extremely important to the mission. I love that the faceless entity of Mission Control tries to put two women at odds with each other, but like good mothers, they found a secret better solution!

This is such a lovely follow up to the original Peter Pan story. The theme here really hits home. Not so much about growing up or having a mother, but being seen and being heard. A typical problem for most women, to be honest. But when it happens to TinkerBell, the faerie's emotional maturity is dangerously undeveloped, just like in the original story. And with her power, things can get downright scary. This a great family friendly story with important things to talk about afterwards. An epic faerie tale indeed!

This may be sci-fi, but it's so relatable. Social distancing vs Spatial distancing. And how AI is supposedly making everything easier, but taking out the most important variable in life, the human variable. Hermia is born into this world and is perfectly adjusted and her sisters are in awe of her intelligence and stamina for the worlds ahead. There's a touch of sadness that she doesn't seem to need or miss her sisters as much as Ophelia and Rosalind do. But her adjustment is a gift. Hopefully Rosalind and Ophelia can get the human connection they both still need.

It's funny how much of human social interactions revolve around food. And when your diet is slightly different than the rest of the crowd, suddenly you are different as well. Otherwise, why would they make vegetarian food to look like familiar meats? To help you blend in at the barbecue, like poor Sam is trying to do.

Beautiful. Naughty. Real. I love that this is a pairing of women, when usually this would be a male perspective story. Good for Paris and Dora for knowing what they want and not adding more than that to the menu.

I laughed so hard at "Oh Marianne. Know your worth." This is such a fun short play that will have audiences roaring, despite the fact they are being held hostage by a couple of thieves. The banter with the unseen hostages and the surprises the thieves keep discovering about their not so well planned heist are just brilliant. This will be a favorite in an evening of short plays!
