Doug DeVita is one of my favorite playwrights, and “Fable” reinforces the many reasons why I love his writing. This full-length play is multilayered, highly theatrical, funny, and heartrending. It really is meant to be seen and experienced, but it also makes for a fascinating read. One of the most perfectly crafted plays you will ever encounter. Bravo!

A heartwarming, funny, and well-written short play with great roles for older actors. An upbeat play that reveals the upside of a long-term marriage. I love the way this play dispels the stereotypes about senior citizens being too over-the-hill to enjoy life. Bravo!

This is a fast-paced, well-written, hysterically funny short play that will have the audience roaring with laughter. A great vehicle for comedic actors. I would love to see this play staged or Zoomed. Bravo!

The cruelty, judgment, stupidity, arrogance, false beliefs, and violence teenagers are known to express is brilliantly and vividly brought to life in this ten-minute drama. A highly visual and physical play, I would love to see this staged. Shocking, disturbing, and all-too real, this haunting play is a sad commentary on modern life and the lack of compassion, respect, and kindness that young people display toward their elders.

Just the mere mention of Belgium Waffles at the World’s Fair, well, that alone made me love this play, which is set in 1964. A short trip down memory lane, when the World Trade Center was about to become a reality, and the assassination of JFK was still fresh in the minds of every American, a young couple discuss their future marriage. Brilliantly written, this ten-minute play makes you reflect on the rigid roles men and women were expected to follow back in the day. Bravo!

With a fun cast of characters, a zany plot filled with twists and turns, and witty dialogue this play would certainly earn the Audience Favorite award in any ten-minute festival. I would love to see this staged!

I always love a good monologue play. They offer us a window into someone's soul, and this short play makes us fall in love with Peter, an OCD man, who has found his calling - cleaning the windows of buildings. He takes pride in his craft, and we come to see him as a hardworking, caring, human being, who honestly wants to make this this world a more beautiful place. I would love to see this staged.

This short, one-act play feels amazingly large in scope. The characters are rich and fully realized, and the language is soulful and poetic. The two scenes, at first seemingly unrelated, flow together like the noblest of rivers. Simple to stage, this breathtakingly beautiful play, is complex, captivating, and creative. Bravo!

This award-winning, short, one-act, poetic play weaves Greek mythology with one of our own beloved, modern-day mythological superheroes to create a rich theatrical tapestry. Funny, touching, and poignant, Charles and Michael remind us to look at our long-term lovers with new eyes to rediscover all the wonderful magic that drew us together in the first place. There are many memorable lines in this play, but my favorite one: Time is kryptonite, is a classic piece of dialogue I will never forget. I give this play a loud, standing ovation!

Two great parts for women, one in the beginning of her theatrical career and the other at the end of hers. This play captures the angst playwrights feel struggling with their own insecurities, while dealing with temperamental actors; and the angst good actors feel trying to make a character, they are portraying, ring true. Simple to stage, well-crafted, and well-paced, this short dramedy would delight audiences of all ages.
