  • Wait - A monologue
    7 Apr. 2024
    We had this piece read at our Sunday night play reading and the two things that immediately struck me were the wonderful pace of the dialogue and the raw power and emotion behind it. You grow to know the child and the mother as she talks about her life of being a parent and how fast it can be. It offers an amazing opportunity for a performer!
  • A GUST OF WIND (a two minute monologue)
    7 Apr. 2024
    We read this piece as part of our Sunday night play reading and I found myself wanting to cheer by the end despite the sad initial concept. It's easy to consider loss and death as the end of something but Marj embraces the idea of new beginnings and that gives this piece a fabulous sense of power!
  • Yeah, I Have Regrets (Monologue)
    7 Apr. 2024
    We had the great privilege of reading this as part of our Sunday night play-reading and it's a fabulously powerful piece that speaks to everyone who has thoughts about the 'what ifs' of their life. It's wonderfully emotional and powerful in equal stead and offers a chance for a fabulously powerful performance!
  • BALL AND CHAIN a monologue
    7 Apr. 2024
    We had the great privilege of reading this piece as part of our Sunday night play reading and it's a fascinating exploration of relationships, marriage, and regrets all wrapped in wonderful language. You can see the wonderful scenes that are constructed as part of this emotional reminiscing. Offers a wonderful insight into the world of 'what ifs' and 'what could have been'.
  • is my sun shining?
    3 Apr. 2024
    Death can do all sorts of things to a person and Ian explores all of those powerful emotions in this ten minute play. An audience won't fail to be struck by the heart breaking circumstances that Alec has found himself in, contemplating and trying to live through the loss of the person he loves. Its an emotional play with wonderful moments of humour that provides the audience with moments that they may not expect. Speaking personally, I shed a tear or two! Offers a powerful performance opportunity for two actors!
  • ART-ificial Intelligence - A 5-Minute Play
    31 Mar. 2024
    We had the great privilege of hearing this at our Sunday night play reading and putting an actual voice to Monalis was fabulous and yet terrifying. This is a fascinating and curious piece that offers a fascinating analysis of the threat of technology. It's a perfect piece for a look at what the future could hold with wonderful tension and an enthralling conversation.
  • Charlie
    31 Mar. 2024
    We had the great privilege of reading this piece at our Sunday night play reading and it was a wonderfully refreshingly honest and emotional conversation about relationships between mother and daughter. The dialogue draws you in and it leaves you with many questions, but in the best possible way! As always, George gives you characters that you can't help but want to know more. Its wonderfully touching and funny in equal measure.
  • Renewal
    18 Mar. 2024
    Who would have thought that waking up after a night you can't remember would yield such an amazing tale of discovery? Michael's piece presents the audience with a fascinating set of characters and as the audience we get to watch their lives/histories unfold before our eyes. It has a soap opera quality (in a good way) in the sense that from page 1 you are keen to see what happens next! It's a play that offers a view of relationships that feel real with brilliant characters to play!
  • RICHMOND UNDERGROUND
    18 Mar. 2024
    There's a certain wonderfulness about historical dramas that bring history to life and for me, Richmond Underground was one of those plays. I'll be the first to admit that I don't know a great deal about the period but Rachel as a writer guided me through the story of the Van Lew's and what they did to aid those in need. It's a thrilling tale of brave and powerful characters that, if given the chance to be produced, I think would draw an audience into history as well as entertain.
  • Ripper
    18 Mar. 2024
    Ripper stories have been done in many different forms so it's wonderfully refreshing to find a new perspective on it. Jacob has presented the audience with a fabulous game of cat and mouse where a young woman with dreams of being a reporter finds herself involved with one of the most infamous killers in history! The story twists and turns with an addictive quality that had mean leaning eagerly forward as I read, desperate to know what would happen next. If you're looking for a thriller with a refreshing perspective that is sure to entertain and terrify, this is it!
