    As a cat owner, I can relate to this spot-on one minute play! A comic and true peek inside the cat mom/cat relationship!

  • Vivian Lermond: 38 COOKIES, 39 REASONS [A MONOLOGUE] by Steven G. Martin
    “

    We have all been there - victimized by our stressful lives and finding solace in gobbling up a big pack of cookies. With a smooth hand. Martin treats us to a mirrored image of some of our own food demons, and he does it with delicious panache.

  • Vivian Lermond: I'll Be Here by Philip Middleton Williams
    “

    DNA stays .. it is the eternal link between a parent and their child. In this beautiful exchange between the ghost of a departed father and his son, we experience the power of the cathartic release of the past and a peace in knowing that love endures.

    Life is a lesson plan ... a learning experience. Kaplan's play leads where we least expect it and we are eager to stay on the journey. A great plot with a great twist!

  • Vivian Lermond: Eliana - Monologue by Elisabeth Giffin Speckman
    “

    In life, we find there will always be lines of demarcation. Giffin Speckman carefully weaves her words and builds upon her childhood recollections and the parallels to our current Covid crisis. A well-paced, poignant, powerful bit of visual storytelling!

    First dates can make anyone nervous, even under normal conditions. But Melanie and Stan find themselves in truly awkward circumstances. This little play just sparkles with comic dialogue and really likeable characters. A real winner for a short play festival!

  • Vivian Lermond: THE TALK by Hank Kimmel
    “

    A wonderful one-minute monologue about a dad struggling to have the big "sex talk" with his teenage son and dancing around the subject entirely. Realistic and very funny! Would love to see this one performed in a one minute play festival!
