    I highly enjoyed reading this. Alex and Xavier's story was interesting, and I was rooting for them the entire play. The format of the play is also very interesting...a series of short scenes, both present and past...that add up to tell the entire story by the end of the play. It all worked together to keep me reading, and I'd love to see a full production of this play.

    This was such a moving play. And highlights the struggles many cis people have adjusting to the changes their trans loved ones are going through. It's careful, well thought out, and filled with love beneath the character's anger and confusion. It's an honest portrayal of hard-won, but earned love.

  • David Taylor Little: A RAINY NIGHT IN HOLLYWOOD - one-act based on actual events in 1940's Hollywood. by Tom Erb

    What a wonderful read. I liked the basis in reality, and the characterizations. This could be a wonderful piece for competitions, or to pair with a few other shows for a night of one acts. It has two great parts for actors to sink their teeth into, and a very simple set. I'd love to see this staged.

    This is such a lovely, heart-felt, and sad play. The rising danger of the Nazi's is palpable throughout, but so is the hope of these young people. This would be a great companion piece for a class studying "The Diary of Anne Frank" or a wonderful competition play for a high school.

    This is a nice little play and would be a great addition to a holiday evening of short plays. It's funny, but also touches on some important issues related to workers rights. The characters are well drawn as well, and you get a great sense of how much they mean to one another. A fun, and unexpected, Christmas play that would be a wonderful inclusion in any evening.

    I saw the world premiere of this play at The Pigeon Creek Shakespeare Company last night. It's enchanting and fun. It would be a great piece for college and high school students, but also a nice companion to run in rep with a professional production of The Tempest. There is much to admire and enjoy in this play for Shakespeare aficionados and newbies alike.

    I just read this wonderful play and can't recommend it highly enough. The characters are well drawn, the story is relevant and interesting, and it can be easily produced by many theatre groups. The conflict is one that any artist will relate to, even if they don't find themselves in the EXACT same situation as the characters in this play. It makes you think about the need for funding in artistic spaces, but raises the question about who gets to dictate how that money is spent. I encourage anyone to read this and consider producing it in their festival.
