DC CATHRO’s play had me thinking ‘I can see where this is going’ until I was totally surprised (mouth open type) with a ‘what-the’ moment. “Goldfish’ will give you a never-to-be-forgotten different perspective. You will love to read this play.

PHILIP MIDDLETON WILLIAMS has created a hilarious sci-fi which had me laughing our loud and thoroughly enjoying it. “Chewie, Get Us Out Of Here” would be a fun play for actors and audiences alike.

SCOTT SICKLES’s short play is about the depth of feelings a person has while under a great deal of stress. There is a lot unsaid but the you just know there is an undercurrent of attraction between these two people. “The First Of Many” is a dynamic play with depth, heart, and possibilities.

MONICA CROSS has us engrossed with her death of death play, and than she takes us to the moment in which we witness the Declaration of War. In “Pantheon Wars: Declaration”, we find there is a more dramatic way to tell of such an act than just a written letter.

MONICA CROSS takes us into the underworld and imagines the unimaginable, death dying. “The Pantheon Wars: The Death of Death” can evoke imagery of the one thing that all humans must face, but there is an unexpected turn of events. Fascinating!

MATTHEW WEAVER’s “A Lot A Lot (one-minute Play)” reminded me of the first time I told my future wife how I felt, and she telling me how she felt. This is a sweet play of a precious moment of time in which so much is said in so few words. I am picturing all of the loving couples in the audience looking at each other and smiling. Beautiful!

CHELSEA FRANDSEN's play is well-written. I found the relationships and inter-dynamics of the brothers, Dayton and Cal, and the other characters, who play an important role in their lives, to be emotional, sweet, and compelling. "Smoke and Mirrors" is a play well-worth reading and should be a big hit with audiences on Zoom or onstage.

PHILIP MIDDLETON WILLIAMS has written a compelling play. Two former students and friends return to the boarding school at which they were students twenty years later as teachers. Each has a past to tell and both find out more than they realized or understood about each other, themselves, and the boarding school. “Dark Twist” is a brand of tobacco smoke, but it is also a metaphor for the sameness, unchanging, traditional ways of the school, its faculty, and students. You can smell the aroma and remember it from days gone by. Tradition, habits, old desks - can they change? BRAVO!

SAMANTHA MARCHANT’s short play has many layers to contemplate. Two men are speaking almost the same things simultaneously, yet we don’t know much about them but we can infer a lot. The men seem distant from being engaged with their spouses - could they be having an affair? The men seem totally engrossed in them selves - could they be workaholics, depressed? “Burning The Candle At Both Ends” seems more about missing life by hurrying to get somewhere fast. This is an interesting play.

PHILIP MIDDLETON WILLIAMS has described the agony of being a writer and having writer’s block. “Here’s Your Sandwich” is a fun play and is so reminiscent of the times we, as writers, struggle for an idea - any idea - and think of the most weird and wild thoughts. It is part of the journey of creating our work. This play is ‘right on’ and is enjoyable to read and would delight audiences.
