    “

    RED is a heartfelt and moving queer adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood. The writing is beautiful and poetic. Great work to Alyssa Cokinis.

  • David Lipschutz: Sequence by Erin Osgood
    “

    Oofta this play gave me chills. EMERGENCY PROTOCOL CAMOUFLAGE is an intense, futuristic play with diverse and well-crafted characters. The world Erin Osgood creates is somehow believable and relatable, despite it being set 200 years from now. Check this one out.

  • David Lipschutz: The Shady Lady: A Robust Blend of Privilege, Influence, and White-Collar Crime by Lisa Dellagiarino Feriend
    “

    THE SHADY LADY is a hilarious workplace farce. I was fortunate enough to see this play performed live at its world premiere with The Saint Sebastian Players in Chicago, Illinois. Lisa Dellagiarino Feriend and Kara Poe Atnip knock it out of the park with their writing. The characters all have very funny, unique voices/personalities, and the story will keep the audience guessing at what on Earth could possibly happen next!

  • David Lipschutz: Zoe or Zoe by Samantha Marchant

    Oh I loved reading this play, ZOE OR ZOE. It is a fun and smartly written piece about three female characters in school discussing and reading a scene between three female Shakespearian characters. Excellent work to Samantha Marchant!

    BIRTHDAY BEER is an endearing and sweet play. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the characters and see their relationship develop over the course of the play. Great work by Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn!

  • David Lipschutz: The Secret of Jarlsberg by Arthur M Jolly

    THE SECRET OF JARLSBERG is a sweet and funny and witty and at times ridiculous play by Arthur M Jolly. The writing is smart and keeps the audience engaged as we get a glimpse in time between a couple arguing about and somehow bonding over fondue.

    A BUBBE'S GIFT is a beautiful and emotionally powerful play that showcases how strong a relationship can be between a Jewish grandchild and their bubbie. The writing by Ellen Davis Sullivan is sweet and engaging.

  • David Lipschutz: The Tenant by Dana Hall
    “

    THE TENANT is how you do virtual theatre correctly. Dana Hall has written a smart, funny, and at times suspenseful play - with characters that are a hoot! - intended to be performed on the virtual stage.

    TARO IN THE 4TH DIMENSION by Evan Spreen is a wild and fun - and unique - story filled with fun characters you'd never expect to interact on stage. This would be a hoot to watch live. Added bonus that it is a nice advertisement for Cracker Barrel!

    AN ODE TO WRITER'S BLOCK IN THE TIME OF COVID by Caitlin Strom-Martin perfectly encapsulates the pandemic and how folks have tried to cope and deal.
