This is a wonderfully atmospheric sketch which had me smiling the whole way through! The vastly different language Clarence and Blanche use, with Harry chipping in with the occasional translation was very clever and hilarious. This would work well on stage, but even more so as a filmed sketch in black and white. I loved it!

It is very fitting that I love THAT'S AMORE! This is a darkly funny play which had a smile spreading across my face which soon turned into full blown laughter! Such a wonderful short piece, so I won't give it away, read it for yourself! I found the stage directions uniquely funny too, I could just picture someone on stage, as an aside, reading them throughout, because they come across as an opinion, slightly sarcastic too, which I simply love! Read this, it's FABULOUS!

Being a world away during this frightening event, I can only imagine what it must have been like. Here, Emily describes the situation brilliantly in a tight, tense and claustrophobic setting, where two friends help each other come terms with what might just be the end. Very good work.

What a wonderful idea this is, ancient Furies relaxing in a bar after a tough day, I love the idea itself! All three have wonderfully different personalities, one especially has a smashing time! I particularly like the line: Just because people call us the Furies, doesn't mean they should make us furious, okay!" Love it!

Pandora has been given the most awkward conundrum possible, to do or not to do. This monologue starts out darkly funny, but what follows is the situation we all find ourselves in, the constant fight against evil and the hope we hold against such evil. I would actually like to see this filmed with clever special effects. Great!

Ah, what a tease, Rachel is a master in cliff hangers! Here she has written a darkly comedic two hander between a very streetwise 'professional' lady and a worried, angry wife, what ensues is a fun, awkward and downright clever stand off between the two. I think this play creates exciting roles for two enthusiastic actresses. As usual with this authors work, I'm left wanting more!

I love it when a great playwright tells a story behind a photo or painting, and this version is wonderful. From the start I was hooked and quickly surprised at the way the young lady reacts! Then follows great interaction between all three characters as she makes her point to great effect. To me it read as if she'd come from the future with her modern stance on harassment and abuse, wonderful!

Ah, this is such a lovely notion! What if we all stop a minute and take a look in the mirror to address our issues, maybe they will not be as big as we think they are? For some reason I had the Michael Jackson song 'Man in the Mirror' running through my head while reading this play! Imagine casting this play with three sets of twins!

Joe Swenson has written a heart wrenching, desperately sad and frightening short play here, which needs to be told. I commend Joe for having the courage to write this, as it must have been very difficult. Having an older 'imaginary friend' narrate the actions from a cupboard and then be there, dare I say, for his younger self, is touching as it is sad. I believe this should be performed in front of young audiences in order to help put an end to the horrifying cycle of abuse we so often see.

The very title of this play is genius in itself, as are some of the lines in the complicated, painful, awkward story we see unfold at their 'chance' meeting. "When you're not living in reality, everything seems clear" what a great line to sum up the feeling of this great two hander. This play got me asking lots of questions, which I love!
