  • INSURGENCE by Vivian Lermond
    19 Nov. 2020
    “ A perceptive piece exploring the unbridled confidence of the brash, one-sided truth of the young colliding with the bruised regrets, quiet compromises and equally painful truth of the mature. Both are strong, fully rounded characters, winningly portrayed. Very insightful, with excellent sympathetic roles for women. ”
  • The Bee's Knees by Matthew Weaver
    18 Nov. 2020
    “ This is a real charmer. It's full of imaginative physical theatre as well as off the wall humour. Its
    warm heart will have the audience smiling with pleasure and admiration all the way through to its moving conclusion - a lovely piece. ”
  • 1101 WELLINGTON WAY - DUOLOGUE (from the MAD FOR MYSTERY Collection) by Vivian Lermond
    18 Nov. 2020
    “ A compelling and tense situation between incompatible neighbours takes several intriguing twists in this well crafted duologue, leaving the audience guessing to the end as to what lies beneath...and sure as shootin' - something does! ”
  • DOLORES THE PLUMBER - MONOLOGUE by Vivian Lermond
    18 Nov. 2020
    “ Lots of smiles and a clever twist in this fun and feel good tale of a practical plumber who pulls off an unintentional feminist coup on New Year's Eve. An enjoyable treat for audience and actor alike. ”
  • Fixed by DC Cathro
    9 Nov. 2020
    “ DC Cathro pulls off the ambitious but appealing challenge of taking two hard-edged,
    self-absorbed characters and helping them grow into endearingly vulnerable,
    honest and fully rounded people. The dialogue is fresh and zings along with a reality that
    causes both pain and comfort to the protagonists and audience in equal measure. ”
  • Genesisters (Online Version) by Ken Preuss
    17 Oct. 2020
    “ I not only read this short play, but had great fun watching it on youtube, as part of Divine Madness online (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-Cb6drXHJA&feature=youtu.be) (if it's still there!)
    Four zany female angelic beings decide to get a jump on creation by designing a planet with originality and a feminine touch - but as in any board meeting they struggle to both complement God's plan and kickstart the charming and quirky future they envision. The characters, quips and and satire had me smiling from start to finish. ”
  • Taking Sum Lumps (Online Version) by Ken Preuss
    17 Oct. 2020
    “ Such a cleaver, original concept with imaginative details that make the audience grin with recognition AND groan with sympathetic despair as one person's seven year's bad luck at breaking a mirror is compressed into one day. Can it get worse? Oh yes. ”
  • DO OVER - a 30 minute drama for four characters by Arianna Rose
    11 Sep. 2020
    “ The set up seems familiar at first, a young man doesn't know that he has died and is met and helped at a way station in the afterlife - but the play soon takes several heart-wrenching turns. The boy's parents, in their grief, astral project to be with him one last time, there is a reunion with another lost family member, and then a plan for them all to reunite in an unexpected way. I loved the journey, such a moving expression of the depth of commitment and love. ”
  • The Dawning Of The Age Of Ganymede by Lucy Wang
    22 Aug. 2020
    “
    A light hearted, clever romp through the minds of Zeus and Hera on Olympus as they choose a new cupbearer and explore the ins and outs (and future) of pansexuality and sheep as 'emotional support animals.' A solid smile from beginning to end. ”
  • Scurvy by Lucy Wang
    22 Aug. 2020
    “ A taut reminder of how close anyone without instant "white privilege" is to being labelled, profiled, typed - thoughtfully written with insight and honesty. ”
