This is a lovely short two hander by Mackenzie, a memory with a message. To me it bought back a fond memory of sitting at the back of our farm house with my mother, us both shelling garden peas! I'm sure I had similar advice if only I was wise enough to take it in! Nice!

This play in it's simplicity is also very clever, what you think will turn into a 'Reservoir Dogs' type of stand off turns into quite a touching meeting between adversaries. Such is the depth of story hiding behind this I think there is scope for a much longer play, but as it is it's just perfect!

This is a touching short two hander where two characters meet from worlds apart, both are portrayed perfectly, Bert the old fashioned gent and Alice the damsel in distress. Rachel has a unique talent for recording snapshots in time and this is an excellent example. I can imagine Bert and Alice chatting all through the night!

I love it when an author brings you instantly into the script without effort, as Alice does here. I can clearly see this staged, with lots of old props and lights etc, it would be a joy to watch. Above all Tilly's energy keeps us captivated throughout, I only wish we'd seen more of Mr Hitchcock himself. I also admire the formatting of the script, it's as if it were typed on an old typewriter by Tilly herself! Love it!

Having been in a previous relationship of obsessive book sharing I can totally relate to this two hander! The play is well constructed and the stage directions spot on, audiences will enjoy watching the interaction between this couple and between the pages. Great!

We've often heard the saying "the customer is always right", when really this means "the customer is a pain in the a***" You can't help feel sorry for the batista here in this fun and energetic play. I can really see this happening in real life, let alone in the stage!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this brilliant two hander by Cathro, I could clearly imagine Monica's surprise when Kelly turns up on her doorstep looking the way she does. This is darkly funny, yet equally sad and moving as Kelly slowly realises the truth. I would love to see this staged, two great roles for two actors to take on. I love it!

Sometimes we all get caught up in worrying about what others think and pondering their possible ulterior motives, that we forget to put ourselves first. This touching play by McClain explores this expertly as we watch Kellie and Sarah come to their decision.

What a strange and wonderful fantasy this is! I love the way the reasons are not fully explained as the two ladies agree to start a new life in this foreign world. There would be so many delightful ways you could stage this brilliant play!

What a beautiful piece this is by Dana and David, I must admit I shed a tear. It captures perfectly just how we feel at a wake (or other cultural word) of a loved one we held dear. I particularly admire the amount of research that went into this play, thank you!
