While I don't know the tormet Lindsay is going through as she shares this monologue, which both makes you smile and breaks your heart at the same time, you, as an audience member will be feeling for her by the end. Scott Sickles has brought this poor woman's anguish to life here and has given an actress a wonderfully powerful part to play. For me it also made me think about how many other people out there are suffering. That's the true power of Scott's writing, he makes you feel for the characters while provide great theatre, every time!

So now I want to go and set fire to Miriam's neighbours house! That's the wonderful realistic, emotional and humourous characters Karen has presented within this piece. Its a brilliantly constructed snapshot of the sat circumstances that Miriam has had to endure as this woman's neighbour, which will resonate with people of have suffered with neighbours from hell, which seems to me an appropriate title for this woman. Yet, despite the darkness there are moments of light that will give you cause to smile. I won't tell you when and where, that's up to you to read and find!

Wow! What a fascinating and thrilling piece this is! In a world where "Dreams are currency" and conformity is the new norm Cole has created a fascinating tension filled piece that keeps you guessing and holding your breath! As an audience you are presented with this intrieguing premise and characters and before you know where you are, you are draw into their story, you find yourself leaning forward wanting...needing to know more! To stage this piece would be a great piece to stage and won't fail to draw an audience in, it definitely did me! Wonderful work Cole!

A brilliantly delicately balanced piece! To begin you are presented with four wonderfully believable characters that I could see & hear in my head as they discussed the events of a boxing match which then descends into a darker conversation about the war that is currently being fought around them. There are some wonderful moments of dilaogue that will make you smile and some moments that will tug at your heart strings with wonderful characters at the centre. A fabulously written piece which, for me, hits the top three, makes you laugh, makes you cry and makes you think.

Dinner Date is an intrieguing giggle fest from beginning to end. Andy and Rebecca have you guessing right through what they are going to do and say to each other next. The play is a wonderful analysis of how different (and bizarre) relationships can be. Its got quick back and forth dialogue that guides you through the escalation of their converstion, twisting and turning as it goes on. Its is a brilliant work of comedy that is sure to have an audience giggling when you are presented with the final twist at the end! A wonderfully witty piece!

In a world where certain types of people are far too happy to get involved in other people's business its fabulous to see someone standing their ground! One page it may be but Jacquelyn depicts a scene that many people will be able to relate to (having witnessed or been part of it). I feel like Harriet deserves a commendation for the wonderful way she deals with the situation and the entitled Ms B. Jacquelyn never disappoints with her wonderfully witty dialogue and the final line here had me laughing out loud! Fabulously written!

Truly beautiful! Christmas newsletters are things that have been mocked many times but in this case Deb creates a moment between Dan and Stella as they debate the contents of that years Christmas letter. To begin you think you are going to have a wonderfully giggling humorous piece, as I did giggle quite a bit to begin with but then Deb presents a twist that invokes emotion and makes you truly appreciate those you have in your life. It could be the perfect addition to a seasonal show! Another wonderful piece from Deb!

Ok I'm still giggling several mins after finishing this brilliant piece! Just when you think you've heard every Christmas story there is...you get Santa & Godzilla! Its a wonderfully funny piece depicting a brilliantly crazy scenario but at the same time Lee has given it a lovely moment that made me smile amidst all the laughter. If you're looking for something different this festive season then you can't go wrong with this brilliant piece!

A wonderfully witty twist on Santa with...many Santas! Just when you think you've seen all the different versions of Santa there are Donna brings you this brilliant re-imagining of the legend of Santa! A lovely festive piece that made me giggle and smile. Wonderfully written and sure to put you in a festive mood.

Its very easy to say Christmas is a time for kids but in this wonderfully funny short Christopher Soucy questions that by having an adult catch sight of Santa. The dialogue between Santa and Harry is a wonderfully witty back and forth that debates on what Christmas is about and how the magic of Christmas can continue with us into adulthood. Its a gorgeously festive piece that is guaranteed to make you smile!
