  • Christopher Plumridge: Seven -twelve (a monologue)

    In one short page, Marilyn gives us a devastating take on a cancer diagnosis, unique. Yet her protagonist is upbeat in their real day in London, (as it felt to be located). For the rest of life still rumbles on, even if for some they are numbered.
    A clever, striking monologue.

  • Christopher Plumridge: SUNSETS (a monologue)

    In just one page, such depth of story unfolds which will leave the reader, or watcher of this monologue quite breathless. This such a profound short piece, beautiful and moving, with a surprise you will not see coming.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Make it quick

    Wow, the tension is high and intense from the offset and throughout! Just reading this brutally short play I felt as if I was one of them, getting my best running shoes on and preparing for a night of survival.
    Brilliant!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Telebomb

    This is a fun Zoom short, it's slick, direct, relevant and best of all is the final line! I'm coming to realise that Kate is a master in tying up short stories in style!

  • Christopher Plumridge: True Love

    Ha, I love this! It would be hilarious if it couldn't actually happen, but this day and age it probably can!
    It's a fun short, with a brilliant, naughty ending!
    Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Rusty Old Wrench

    Old tools are precious, even if they are s rusty and cranky as their owner, they're difficult to let go of.
    This play is a touching story, of someone wanting to do good but, at first anyway, getting it all wrong.
    I love the formatting too, it gives the actors free reign to lead it how they wish.
    Nice!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Morning Ever After

    I have often marveled in disbelief at the absurdity of 'the glass slipper/search for the lady from last night' scenario in Cinderella, but that's fairy-tales for you. Emily brings us a hilarious twist in this tale, Cheryl's immediate reaction to her Prince Charming's' visit is spot on and she naturally gives him a hard time of it.
    Great fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Kill Them With Kindness

    I definitely want to see this short, hilarious play staged! Mainly to watch the nurse 'entertain' poor Mr Brown! There's never a good way to break some bad news, but there is surely a fun way, and here it is Kates great short play!

    The final line/stage direction is perfect!

  • Christopher Plumridge: War of Words - A ONE MINUTE PLAY

  • Christopher Plumridge: Treasure (a one-minute play)

    Captured in one small minute, John reminds us in a touching way that once our pets depart, they always leave us something behind, be it physical or spiritual.
    I myself have a small tuft of hair from my Charlie, three years on, encapsulated in a key ring.
    This short is beautiful tribute.
