  • Sophisticated by Jaxson Mackling
    14 Jan. 2023
    “ This would be a lovely short film. The conversation growing in animation and intensity while the fancy restaurant in the background slowly becomes less of the focus and the relationship between mother and daughter becomes sharper and clearer. A nice snapshot in a moment of a girl becoming a confident woman with her mother's unwavering support. ”
  • The Dog Museum by Stephen Foglia
    14 Jan. 2023
    “ This is a piece of poetry, a painting, a song you listen to on purpose to make yourself cry. I found myself fighting tears right from the first consult Mac had. And when Mom comes out for the final time, I gasped and just found myself so moved by the whole journey I had with Mac. So focused on the destination, we never looked at the places we were on the way. Gorgeously haunting piece. ”
  • Miss Charlotte by Christopher Plumridge
    14 Jan. 2023
    “ This monologue begins so sweet and by the end had me saying out loud, 'Ohhhh." I picture this as the opening monologue of a serial. Many different episodes all taking place in this one home. This of course, being the ultimate episode. Imagine all the stories this house could tell. But this was a beautiful story that turned dark. Beautifully framed (pun intended) and told. ”
  • Today I will go to him. by Christopher Plumridge

    “ Wow! This would fit well in a horror festival as well as a women's empowerment festival. The darkness backed with determination. And as an audience, we can surely imagine the target of the determination this woman is honing in on. Definitely a woman who has been broken down by cruelty and is about to break out. A powerful monologue. ”
  • "All Star" by Smash Mouth has been my Alarm for Eight Years and my Girlfriend Hates it by Cole Hunter Dzubak
    8 Jan. 2023
    “ This is hilariously relatable! I once roomed with a girl on a children's theatre tour who had an alarm of her own voice saying "Good Morning, Princess..." and all kinds of affirmations about how great she was. I dreamed about throwing that phone, too! A real snapshot of true life, and would be a great running blackout skit throughout an evening of plays about relationships! Also great, I am sure you could use so few bars of this song you could use it without ASCAP fees :) ”
  • THE WHOLE VAMPIRE THING by Charles Scott Jones
    7 Jan. 2023
    “ So dark and moody. Every sentence is a painting. I can imagine the sound effects of the wine glasses clinking in Vicky's back seat. This is like a classic short story brought to life. ”
  • Spill Chick: An Autocorrected Play by John Busser
    5 Jan. 2023
    “ This is just like trying to text my husband. But he doesn't enjoy the eventual spiral out of intelligibility via autocorrect. Instead, it fills him with murderous rage because he can't figure out what the text actually meant! This play is too real, and I love how autocorrect creates unintentional comedy. This might even work as a short film! ”
  • The Murder is the Thing by Rachel Feeny-Williams
    5 Jan. 2023
    “ Finally! A comic FEMALE detective! And Jane and Sandra deserve their own series! The two are just delightfully hilarious. I also adored Sandra and Carla's super vague conversation that never seemed to really go anywhere. Such strong characters. Seriously, Jane and Sandra should be a weekly series (and Carla as the wacky next door barmaid). I absolutely adore these characters. ”
  • Let You Be Mine by Samantha Marchant
    1 Jan. 2023
    “ This is a poetic, immersive Victorian horror story. The layers get peeled away with each scene, but you never know which direction the horror will come from next. It feels like a tintype photo that makes you feel uneasy the more you look upon it, but you can't exactly say why and you can never look away. ”
  • Designated Driver by Jill Maynard
    1 Jan. 2023
    “ Wow, a ten minute nonlinear and beautiful play of three very distinct and unique characters. These characters are so strong, they could carry a full length play for sure! What a powerful short play unlike any I have ever read before. ”
