  • Vivian Lermond: Feeling Devilish by Donald E. Baker
    “

    What a great, fast-paced six minute run of devilish fun! Loved the conflict, the laughs, and the fact that the demon in question is a lawyer! I enjoyed the hell out of the read!

    From out of the mouths of children, we learn the impact of gun violence. This is a sharp, exacting monologue that resonates! Wonderful work!

  • Vivian Lermond: The Capture, Nature, and Purpose of the (Unfortunately Non-Terrestrial) Pollywog (a monologue) (Playing on the Periphery #3) by Scott Sickles
    “

    Sickle's beautiful, metaphorical monologue deftly weaves young Zoey's innocent comparisons between Pollywogs and mean girl Pollyanna's into a powerful perspective of evolving into a different version of self. A thoughtful, engaging piece of work and a must read!

  • Vivian Lermond: Down to the 'Fifty-Four' by Bill Savage
    “

    Disco fever, Travolta and white suits ... another time, another era, but a lovely glimpse into the ageless expectations and hopes of youth to "be somebody". Savage gives us two well-crafted and quite believable male characters and paints a vivid picture of college dorm life in the late '70's. A fun read!

    “

    Hass takes 60 seconds and capsulizes a nation's emotions as a result of mass shootings in this powerful little play. Sure hope WE INTERRUPT THIS BROADCAST makes it into every one-minute play festival!

  • Vivian Lermond: Earth and Moon by Hilary Bluestein-Lyons

    A perfect little Earth Day play that addresses climate change in an impactful way. EARTH AND MOON would make a wonderful addition to a short play festival dedicated to real time climate issues. I also think it would be a sure hit in the youth play market. Well done.
