  • Vivian Lermond: The Shortest Long-Distance Relationship in the History of Romance (A One-Character Online Play) by Ken Preuss
    “

    Such a great quarantine monologue! As adults, we are preoccupied with our own reactions to all the ramifications of the lockdown, and forget the impact of COVID -19 on kids. Preuss masterfully gets inside the mind and heart of a teenage girl and gives us an insight to all the high octane emotions of puberty. A wonderful performance piece!

  • Vivian Lermond: Sitting with Candy by Ken Preuss

    In Celtic lore, Samheim (the Eve of All Hallows) was the one night a year that the dead could cross over from the spirit realm and engage with mortals. Preuss takes this premise and creates a lovely storyline about love lasting beyond death and the magic that comes from believing. A perfect play for a night of Halloween shorts!

  • Vivian Lermond: Skeletons in the Cellar, a 10-minute play by Susan Middaugh
    “

    Middaugh has created a great script with lots of tension and that sense of ticking clock urgency that makes this play something special. A unique plot, realistic dialogue and a commentary on gentrification, SKELETONS IN THE CELLAR is a perfect choice for a 10 minute play festival!

  • Vivian Lermond: SICILIANS IN THE BASEMENT by Joe Simonelli
    “

    A full-blown lot of funny veiling a moral message - believe, go for the gusto and let karma work out the rest. SICILIANS IN THE BASEMENT accomplishes that, and gives us fun twists and turns along the way to a satisfying resolution.

Wonderful roles her for young women!
