  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: A Fragile Mind Season 2: Rules of the Keeper Episode 1

    Welcome back AFMS! As you all know, I am a superfan of this series, so it's really exciting to see a new script for the upcoming second season.
    It's really interesting to see more of these two characters. It is a chess match of sorts, where we see Shelley and Sam matching wits...though it's clear Miss Pendergrass has the upper hand.
    Intriguing, calculating, and suspenseful, this addition to the story is one that left me excited to see what's next. Season 2 is going to be amazing!

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: Heatwave

    HEATWAVE is the perfect summer rom-com; featuring floortime, metaphors, and a man who pretends to be a dragon...because that's what you do when you love somebody. I adore this piece and I hope that everyone will get up off the floor and show HEATWAVE the love it deserves.

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: BACKSEAT DRIVER

    This piece is the apple pie with ice cream of plays.
    I had the honor of working on BACKSEAT DRIVER with Broken Arts Entertainment, and I absolutely adore this little play. It is silly, heartfelt, and fun...and offers the idea that maybe love really does show up where we least expect it.
    This is the perfect two-hander for two female-presenting actors. It's a must read and a must perform!

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: A True Ghost Story

    Chilling, reminiscent of creepy pasta stories, this piece is the perfect wholesome ghost story for those looking for tales of true encounters with the other side.

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: Faith, Trust and...

    Just think of a happy thought, any Happy little Thought...& you can fly.
    I adore the one-act version of this play, so obviously I am a big fan of this expanded full-length. FAITH, TRUST AND... takes all the whimsical characters we know and love, and drops them into a noir crime drama that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. Rachel Feeny-Williams' characters are distinct and compelling, in a script so vivid and well-crafted it jumps off the page, making it so easy to visualize a fully-staged production.

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: The Alchemist's Gambit

    Save the endangered alchemists!
    With it's cartoon-like mad scientist and his subject- a man who'd prefer not to have his brain picked, this Frankensteiny farce is perfect for a dark and stormy night.

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: Gown

    I'm speechless. GOWN by Robert Weibezahl is a beautiful portrait of a mother-daughter relationship with a heartbreakingly bittersweet twist. I would love to see this show performed.

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: Did you do the thing yet, Joe?

    Art imitates life imitates art.
    This absurdist comedy thriller is insane and hilarious.
    It'll leave you wondering if Joe, in fact, did the thing yet.

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: Incendiary

    Wow. Just... I cannot stop thinking about this piece.
    Raw. Topical. Important. INCENDIARY.
    Wagner's contemporary tragedy takes up to a home where the heart isn't, with a family held together by mere straws. No one is safe when supposed foundations are flammable, when alleged voices of reason hold the matches. This socio-political allegory exposes it's cast of colorful characters to a real trial by fire. There is no time more relevant than right now to get heated (no pun intended?) about this play; every theater should be looking at this piece for their season. Highly recommend.

  • Hannah Lee DeFrates: Wishes (a five minute play)

    The amount of emotions I just felt while reading this short. Wow! Magical and heartbreaking and bittersweet and beautiful. My wish is for everyone to read this...and a hot fudge sundae wouldn't hurt.
