Not so much a meet cute, as a meet trouble.
This is a clever play, as we'll never know just who out of this couple is in the most trouble. More please!

Treat yourselves and listen to this wonderfully creepy play on Gather by the Ghost Light podcast!
To take an innocent kids game and turn it on its head in quite a horrific way is inspired!
Now I will always do as Simon says, or maybe I have no choice anyway....
Brilliant!

This short, skillfully written by Alaina, reads as a folklore tradegy, with clever use of flashbacks and a chorus of any number of people providing the antagonist to the king.
I see this as a fine opportunity for a student group to take on, such is the strength of the main characters and the flexibility of the chorus roles.
Great!

Haha! This pretty much sums up many meetings in my company!
Also, this reads very much like a Monty Python sketch.
Give this a read, better still, produce it!

This is a clever monologue where gender judgement is flipped on its head. It's rhyming and poetic too.
This should be read to lots of arrogant men out there.

A monologue so relevant it needs to be performed now, especially after events from yesterday (28 March 2025) during Zelensky's meeting with Trump and his bullies.
An excellent and important monologue.

So this is a sweet little fantasy, lyrical and poetic, subtle and rhythmic. A cat and mouse game of solitaire and chess, and of gentle argument. I think this would make a great character study for students, and there's many ways to bring out the fantasy.
Clever and unusual, a pleasure to read!

This dark noir has it all, a hard drinking, gambling PI, a dame with a past so dark you couldn't see through it and a dead body who still has a voice. Chuck in the usual brilliant Busser dark comedy and you have the perfect noir.
And how the inner monologues start talking to each is inspired!

We are all guilty of judging people, it's human nature and thankfully most keep it to themselves. In this monologue we meet a self confessed introvert, who in just a short space of time declares her reasons in being how she is, it clears the air perfectly over a cup of coffee on the balcony.
Lots here for a meaningful audition piece.

This clever little play goes into the box marked: 'Why didn't i think of this!'
Who better to star in a Noir than Dracula himself?!
No spoilers here, just give it a read and better still, produce it!
