I think this monologue is a fun take on the modern day theatre kid. I certainly remember the Fine Young Satanist of my high school experience and think about him often- and I love that this kind of kid is represented in a stage piece now.

This monologue is killer! The imagery is so vivid and the journey is captivating from start to finish. The ending will stick with me for a long time!

I can't recall the last time, if ever, that I've seen such an accurate, respectful, and insightful portrayal of such a young child onstage. The depiction of Antonio and his relationships with his parents and his toys is so meticulously crafted. The subject matter is haunting.

This little play packs a punch! Isobel is a character I would line up to see more of over and over again.

This monologue is so vivid and powerful. It's perfectly saturated with detail and paints such a clear image of what this woman's life is like; the perfect balance of theatrical and realistic. Highly compelling.

The dynamics between the three characters in this play is so interesting to me. I love the details behind each character and the situation they ultimately end up finding themselves in is simultaneously harrowing and ironic.

This play captures a really touching moment between two young women. It's highly relatable to the 20 something experience, especially post-pandemic, and it leans into the avenue of communal care, which is not something that is practiced as often in our society as it should be.

I've been thinking about this play nonstop since I first came in contact with it. Meat Cute leaves a lasting impression; the unique relationship between the two characters is highly compelling and intimate. It's a great short play!

American Airman should be a play that everyone knows. There is so much to dive into in this script; it is wonderfully well written. I am extremely grateful to have stumbled upon it as it is one of those pieces that has altered my worldview.
