  • Death of Stand Up
    23 Feb. 2024
    MARILYN OLLETT’s play, “Death of Stand Up”, reminded me of the time, just a few years ago, when I did standup comedy and wrote my ‘jokes’. Everyone in the audience has an opinion on what is or is not funny. Well, I recommend you read this one-minute piece, because you will laugh.
  • The Challenge
    23 Feb. 2024
    TONY VALE has written a hilariously outrageous, madcap, crazy funny play. I was smiling, giggling, and laughing out loud through the short play. “The Challenge” is fun and enjoyable. Good job!
  • THE BILL a short play
    23 Feb. 2024
    D LEE MILLER shows us that loneliness can make an elderly person, or even younger, susceptible to a scam. “The Bill A Short Play” is a tale of what happens far too often. We should always be careful. As they say, “if it’s too good to be true, it probably is”. As always, D LEE MILLER gives us a play worth reading and watching on stage.
  • 4 Words of Advice (5 minute play)
    23 Feb. 2024
    ELISABETH GIFFIN SPECKMAN’s “4 Words of Advice” deserves to be put on my wall, to be looked at each day, because it is a wonderful list of what to do, think, and feel. Elizabeth Giffin Speckman has a lot to say in a very few words, four at a time. I recommend you read and enjoy this work.
  • Love Sucks
    23 Feb. 2024
    JOHN MABEY, once again, hits a Grand Slam with a dark comedy about the pulls-and-tugs of trying to make a relationship work on a most appropriate day, Valentine’s Day. “Love Sucks” is filled with humor with a bit of advice for the forlorn: Choose your partner well or you may find yourself being sucked dry of emotion and other things. Nice job! I would love to see this play performed!
  • Tink in the Clink
    23 Feb. 2024
    DANA HALL takes two well-known fairy-tale characters from Peter Pan, and creates an interesting dark comedy with a powerful ending. “Tink in the Clink” is bold, illuminating, and beautifully done in showing a side heretofore never seen or imagined of Tinkerbell, at least by me.
  • The Backyard Stonehenge Chronicles
    23 Feb. 2024
    JACQUELYN FLOYD-PRISKORN writes some of the best plays I have had the pleasure to read, “The Backyard Stonehenge Chronicles” is a romantic comedy about relationships between a married couple and an elderly aunt and her relative/ caretaker. Married couples always need to work out their marital problems. In this delightful play, the choice of building a “Stonehenge” may be unique, but it gets to showing love, understanding, empathy, and effort. There is also love shown in the care to one’s elderly relative, which is loving and without any self-serving greed. I so loved this play!
  • Call me your queen
    18 Feb. 2024
    RYAN VAUGHAN’s play, “Call me your queen”, is beautifully written. This is a play about coming of age. Friendship, first love, heartache, and moving ahead are universal to pre-teens and this short play gives us all of it.
  • Remember Me
    13 Feb. 2024
    GLEN DICKSON’s monologue, “Remember Me”, is beyond good. There are so many levels to this: All of which center around the effect a parent has on their child.
  • Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone [a 1-minute play]
    13 Feb. 2024
    STEVEN G. MARTIN is the master of the 1-minute play, and he does it with few words. “Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone (a 1-minute play)” is truly gripping. BRAVO, once again, for a marvelous work of art!
