  • Your Server Tonight Is Cassandra by Rex McGregor
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ I LOVE Thena and Taz, so of course I am a big fan of this play! The idea of a certain cursed seer working food service is so silly-goofy. Toss her into a situation with two characters who live for banter and hijinks will ensue! This play is full of Rex Mc Gregor's classic cleverness and charm, and it just makes me smile.
    Plus, my heart is put at ease knowing the future of Thena and Taz's relationship...even if they don't believe it. ”
  • Thena and Taz by Rex McGregor
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ Characters are always the first thing I notice when encountering a play and I love these characters so much! There is such charm in these wives who show their love for each other through battles of wit and tag-teaming to help each other achieve their goals. Taz and Thena are two of my favorite characters in Rex McGregor's theatrical canon. Everyone needs to read this play and then go produce it!

  • Cows 'N' Moon by Christopher Plumridge
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ MOOOOOOOOOO!
    I love Plumridge's vision of this nursery rhyme. This piece is fun and quirky and bantery and self-aware in all the best ways. It's giving sitcom that takes place in the country but with farm animals, and I love it.
    I'd be so interested to see what this would look like on the stage! #ibelieveincow2 ”
  • The Berenstain Bearadox by David Lipschutz
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ Mandela effect, man. It can make you feel like your reality is inside-outside-upside-down. Very silly-goofy! ”
  • Direct Quoth by Emily Hageman
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ This is exactly what happened when Edgar Allan Poe wrote "The Raven;" can confirm.
    Hageman is a comedy genius. This play had me rolling! Nevermore will I be the same, because I am now a big big big big fan of this piece. This play is so incredibly funny. The dialogue and the characters are perfection. I love it. I want to do it. I want to see it staged. Defy your fear and have a good day! ”
  • Things they Don't Want You to Know by Josh Gauthier
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ A know-it-all conspiracy theorist working the night shift at the morgue with an undercover undead being? Well, I'd call that delicious irony. (which coincidentally might also be how Brandon would describe his breakfast) Gauthier's dark comedy is sneaky and calculated with a fun payoff at the end. This play would be really fun to see onstage, especially in October. ”
  • Zoning Ordinances by Matthew Weaver
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ Who knew building a gingerbread house in the middle of the woods involved so much red tape? This tongue-in-cheek little fairytale comedy is so clever and fun. Witch and Wolf are such fun characters with a good back and forth. It has the vibes of classic sketch comedy and I am here for it. I'd love to see this onstage. ”
  • Smile, Baby by Claudia Haas
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ In this short, the catcaller finally gets a taste of his own medicine. Haas' short made me "smile." ”
  • After the Garden by Claudia Haas
    6 Apr. 2023
    “ What do you do when you've been literally made for each other but you've been married for 300 long years?
    Sometimes blintzes are the answer.
    ”
  • Marietta's Ultimatum by Rex McGregor
    31 Mar. 2023
    “ This play is a work of art. Once again, Rex McGregor has crafted a clever little script with such charming characters to drive the plot.
    I also love the little connection to "The Merry Widow," because much like the widow-herself-Marietta knows the right words to trick her very own Danilo into doing what she wants.
    Bravo! ”
