  • Waiting On Mom, Who Already Left
    20 Oct. 2022
    I am always delighted when I read one of JOHN BUSSER’s gems. “Waiting On Mom, Who Already Left” didn’t disappoint me, as I laughed, got choked up, giggled, and got the warm heartfelt feeling that comes when a play reminds you of a similar moment in your life. In my case, it was with my brother after our mother passed away. Great job, John! This is another wonderful play!
  • People Should Talk About What's Real
    4 Oct. 2022
    This is my first read of a full-length play by ALLI HARTLEY-KONG, and it certainly won’t be my last. I am totally blown away with this heartfelt, witty, inspirational, unapologetic gem on the touchy, emotional subjects of abortion and adoption. “PEOPLE SHOULD TALK ABOUT WHAT’S REAL” is breathtaking. I was engrossed in the play from start to finish. I highly recommend this be read and produced!
  • A Crooked French Affair
    25 Sep. 2022
    KIM E. RUYLE has written a wonderful, comedic play in which you can thoroughly enjoy the humor while being entertained by interesting characters and relationships. “A Crooked French Affair” will delight audiences and be a big hit at any festival. I highly recommend this play!
  • A Good Year
    26 Aug. 2022
    PHILIP MIDDLETON WILLIAMS’ “A Good Year”, is a wonderful play and is highly recommended. I really enjoyed the love of teaching imbued by Marc, as he did what most teachers do: value their students, give all they can to encourage their students, and expect nothing less than the best from their students. The challenges of working in Marc’s “dream job” were more than he might have expected. Marc’s integrity, love of teaching, and his high moral standards were tested. There is much to like in this gem by a very talented playwright.
  • Come in for Coffee?
    25 Aug. 2022
    CHRISTOPHER PLUMRIDGE’s characters, Ian and Cathy, are experiencing their first date together. “Come in for Coffee?” is a fun piece, filled with humor, and a reminder that we may want the same thing but are still not be ‘on the same page”.
  • Assisted Living
    24 Aug. 2022
    RICH RUBIN’s play, “Assisted Living”, is about a feisty retired mother/grandmother, who has Alzheimer’s disease. Most of the plays about this subject are sad and depressing. In this wonderful play, we witness the affects but with love and humor. There is so much to like about this play: a captivating Rose Fowler, family trying to come to grips with the situation, and the love between a mother and her family. All of it done with compassion. I highly recommend this wonderful play.
  • TAILWIND (a one minute monologue)
    24 Aug. 2022
    VIVIAN LERMOND’s “Tailwind (a one minute monologue)” is a beautiful piece with the charm of the South, the wisdom of Solomon, and the poetry and art of a finely written monologue. Vivian never disappoints with her exceptional writing.
  • Wolves
    24 Aug. 2022
    GEORGE SAPIO has written some wonderful plays and this one was no exception. There is so much to ponder in this powerful, elegant, and provocative play, “Wolves”. Survival and Hope must be a part of humankind’s DNA, yet the bad judgements, selfish motives, and inability to band together rather than think only of ourselves, may bring us to the end of our world. I highly recommend this play.
  • Aphrodite- An Intimate Evening with the Goddess of Love
    23 Aug. 2022
    MATTHEW WEAVER paints the most exquisite portrait of a sensual interaction of the Goddess Aphrodite with the audience. “Aphrodite - An Intimate Evening with the Goddess of Love” presents a challenging but rewarding acting role for a talented actor. I was definitely intrigued and entertained by this gem. Good job!
  • BACKSEAT DRIVER
    23 Aug. 2022
    SCOTT MULLEN’s play has a quirkiness about it as well as a few interesting and surprising twists. “Backseat Driver” is a fun read. I like the two characters and I am sure two actors will also like playing the parts. The audience can buckle their seatbelt and enjoy the view.
