    If dialogue were a dream-like allegory. Sayet delivers.

    “

    A play about a true rebel. And the cereal aisle sucks. Good for her.

  • Bryan Stubbles: MLM is for Murder (Or, Your Side Hustle is Killing Us) by John Bavoso
    “

    YES, YES, HELL YES!!! This is one funny, trippy and oddly truthful ride. This is Bavoso's magnum opus and holy hell y'all should read it. Prescient, bright and notorious. Incredibly well-plotted but also funny with fantastic characters. A grand slam. Woot woot woot!!! Utah should make this their state play. I swear.

  • Bryan Stubbles: IT'S AN EXPRESSO DRINK WITH FOAMY STEAMED MILK by Steven G. Martin

    Martin has set the goal posts for satire far and high. Could be used as a textbook. A very satirical one. Onward and upward!

    Stringer exposes the shallowness of America's cultural portrayals of African Americans. And the ending is a tough one. Recommended.

  • Bryan Stubbles: HAMLET'S REVENGE by Martha Patterson
    “

    Fun stuff. Does a good job of mocking the whiny weirdo that is Hamlet, Dork of Denmark and his bizarre mommy fixation. Recommended.

  • Bryan Stubbles: Marie Antoinette (and the Cost of Living) by Lee R. Lawing
    “

    If you want to read something different and interesting, give this play a look. Some fun dialogue from Marie: "He was ug-ly. I’m sorry. An ug-ly white man all done up in lace and red ribbons. I ain’t seen ugly like that since my brother split a hog’s head in two to show me the insides." Lawing strikes again.

  • Bryan Stubbles: Mid-Year by Lee R. Lawing
    “

    A childhood game gets skewered in this send up of idiotic job reviews. Some very good jokes and funny dialogue such as the following:

    HEA THER
    It’s not fair! It’s not fair! I do Pilates every fracking day and I can’t make it
    around a few chairs without . . . . losing my breath.

    DOUG
    Or your job.

    And there is a twist ending. Bravo.
