    Karen Saari has created a gem with JOYLAND. A humorous spin on the job interview process: a mom in need of a job and having to deal with a perky princess android interviewer to get it. Audiences of all ages will enjoy this short play.

  • Enid Cokinos: Blue Birds (from the THE WRINKLE RANCH AND OTHER PLAYS ABOUT GROWING OLD collection) by Debra A. Cole
    “

    Debra Cole has captured the dynamics of friendships after a divorce, along with the complicated emotions experienced by everyone involved (especially if the newest member is significantly younger!). The characters and the dialogue in BLUE BIRDS are well crafted and true-to-life, and I love that the play ends on an inspirational note for this newly formed group.

    STAR LIGHT, STAR BRIGHT is a wonderfully touching play and a gentle reminder--for children and adults--that each of us blossoms in our own time. And when that time finally arrives, oh, how we shine! Rachel Feeny-Williams has written a true treasure for the whole family to enjoy. This will be a lovely addition to any short play festival.

  • Enid Cokinos: The Night Max Saved Christmas by Ethan Mathias
    “

    What a fun Christmas play! Ethan Mathias has put a truly creative spin on the story of the Grinch with THE NIGHT MAX SAVED CHRISTMAS. This re-imagining, which makes use of the Seussian meter, pulled me in from the opening lines and did not disappoint. A perfect play for the whole family.

  • Enid Cokinos: Rapunzel's Hair by Christopher Lindsay
    “

    I love reconstructed (adult-level) fairy tales and Chris Lindsay puts a unique twist on this classic story that gives Rapunzel the upper hand. A fun play with roles that actors can really enjoy bringing to life.

  • Enid Cokinos: THE BEAT GOES ON 10-minute comedy by Arianna Rose
    “

    THE BEAT GOES ON is a fun trip down memory lane that audiences of all ages will enjoy. Arianna Rose has created wonderfully unique characters that encapsulate the personalities of an LP vinyl record, cassette tape, 8-track tape, CD and Mp3. Actors will have a great time bringing these music containment devices to life!

  • Enid Cokinos: The Grape Nerds Reunion (10 Minute Play) by Alli Hartley-Kong
    “

    A touching story as Alyssa helps Mike stroll through memories—both difficult and sweet—during their high school reunion. A nice reminder that simply listening to someone’s troubles can guide them through the darkness.
