  • Michele Clarke: Closing Doors

    An outstanding use of theater to explore both sides of a no-win dilemma. The audience is treated with respect and is assumed to be fully capable of understanding both sides. This will affect audiences in the best possible way -- prompt them to examine the "truths" that have developed in the aftermath of Sandy Hook.. and what, if anything, they want to do about it.

  • Michele Clarke: Provenance

    There's a magical realism woven throughout this carefully crafted La Rhonde that's apparently still in development. The guidance for scene transitions is especially compelling. Definitely worth a read.

  • Michele Clarke: Draper vs. Draper

    A delicious divorce melodrama. This would make a fantastic radio play.

  • Michele Clarke: Teaching a Lesson

    There's something powerful about revenge by proxy. If you like Death and the Maiden, you'll love TEACHING A LESSON - it's a fascinating and compelling twist. Pro tip: Don't do anything to get on Debra A. Cole's bad side.

    A very well structured mystery with terrific production opportunities.

  • Michele Clarke: There Inherent

    This is excellent. A gift to a talented cast and production team. Timing is everything in this one. Also: I'm not crying. You're crying. ... Wow.

  • Michele Clarke: Well That Just Happened

    Ready for a guilty pleasure? This is a very funny (in a totally mean way) comedy sketch! I can see it on SNL, as a radio play -- so many options in addition to a stage play with this one.

    If you're looking for a modern macabre production that will fascinate and delight audiences, you've found it. Wonderfully drawn characters with terrific sound and light work in a very creative tale. So well done.

  • Michele Clarke: NO SHOW BABY

    One of the most moving monologues I've ever read. The heartbreak. The longing. The love. And it's a fitting opener to the full-length play - the workshop reading I saw in 2023 was a deeply felt search for identity that pulls ribbons of empathy from its audience.
