  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: Cadillac Wilson

    I idea of the conspiracy of what happened to the penises of Greek statues in this piece will keep be giggling for days. The writer has created a very funny character who I'd quite like to have a few drinks with and put the world to rights about the topic of her monologue, that she speaks of so well. Its a brilliantly funny piece!

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: Of Course I'm Right

    In a world that is dominated by the internet and where people are continuously in doubt over what total strangers think, the writer has perfectly framed that aspect of our society here. He's created an entirely believable character in a perfect reflection of an element of our society. It would make a great festival piece that audiences can relate to.

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: Would You Like Help With That? *A Zoom Play*

    What started out as a whimsical and a amusing anecdote about an elderly person trying to get to grips with technology quickly tugs on your heart strings as it explores the characters regrets, doubts and dreams in addition to their relationship with each other. Jacquelyn really has put everything into this piece and it is truly beautiful.

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: Fairytale of the Street

    In what is supposed to be 'the most wonderful time of the year' Chris has reminded us that there are those who do not get a cosy family Christmas in the character of Rob. The way he has constructed the dialogue exactly the way the character would speak is particularly clever. Reading this I could hear Rob's voice as he tries to survive during what is a very lonely and cold time of year for him. While heart breaking the piece is a poignant commentary on our society at this time of year. A very powerful piece!

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: What Happened To Tinker Bell?

    Its a question I've often thought when watching Peter Pan is "What Happened to Tinker Bell?" Another brilliantly constructed piece by Dana that will have you giggling and would be a great monologue for any actress to perform.

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: All Grown Up

    Everyone knows that the relationships between parents and children can be complicated. In this piece, the writer has taken a tense relationship between absent father and daughter and over 13 pages she lets the audience into the memories of their relationships as they seek to reconcile. Throw in with that the interjections from the slightly confused waitress and a daughter who is buried behind her phone and you get a brilliant piece that has you doubting if its too late for this father and daughter. Its a relatable touching piece with funny elements thrown! I loved it!

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: Chasing Cinderella

    Dana has a gift for writing plays with powerful and well written female characters and in this play she takes that skill to a new level of strength. Cinderella is a well known story about how magic and a fairy solved all of her problems, but what if there was no fairy? The writer has taken this well known story, flipped it on its head and given it a wonderful wallop of girl power. We are privileged enough to follow the main character through her life as she discovers herself and realises the true meaning of happily ever after. Beautiful!

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: Bonds That Never Break

    I've read every piece by Jack and never been disappointed with any of his pieces, least of all this one. Its a beautifully written play that sees the sharing of fond memories and what they meant to the characters we see as well as the ones we don't. For eleven pages we, as an audience are allowed a window into this family's life and you end feeling warm, if a little sad but there is never any harm in that. Wonderfully written, as are all of Jack's plays.

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: The People You Meet in Heaven

    When you read that a play is one minute long you think its impossible to create a piece in that time. Well the writer here has definitely proved that wrong. Creating a wonderfully bizarre setting of actually meeting the people you'd say you want to meet when asked the question at a dinner party and then throwing in a wonderful twist and a fabulous closing line and all in one page. Perfect!

  • Rachel Feeny-Williams: The Ballad of Leslie

    Its always lovely to find a play that tickles you right from the beginning and that was the case here. I could completely sympathise with the central character and her frustration at her girlfriend and then the writer made all my frustrations go away with the entrance of Jordan. Everyone should have a chorus in their lives and this play definitely needs to be done!
