  • Christopher Plumridge: Premature Evacuation (10-minute play)

    Being forced from ones home is bad enough, worse so in these modern times, from a peaceful country which has been invaded. Also it can test our resolve and put immense pressure on otherwise strong relationships. Agnes captures this painful scenario in a conversation between a young couple who find themselves in a cold, desolate foreign railway station. Audiences will feel for this young Ukrainian couple and hope they find peace, work and a new life even if the door behind them is permanently closed.
    A moving short play.

  • Christopher Plumridge: P.S.A.: AN AIRPORT MONOLOGUE

    This monologue serves as an important message that we are all human, even those we pass through an airport, having to deal with our impatience. We've all been there, wanting to take out our frustrations on the one helpless company representative.
    Asher gives real life to this gate agent, they too are tired, frustrated and risk missing Christmas altogether. A great character for any actor to get ro grips with and act their hearts out. Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: 1918

    In a time of instant communication across the world which comes in many forms, it's difficult to grasp a time when we waited impatiently for just one letter in the post.
    Alaina captures this perfectly in her bitter/sweet recollection of her great grandmother's letter to her love at war. The pain and love is evident throughout this piece.
    Great play, I'd live to see this performed.

  • Christopher Plumridge: TIME (a one-minute radio play)

    Ha, Julia tricked me! This is a fun short radio play which would be a blast to perform and to listen to. Lots of fun SFX and some serious/funny characters.
    Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Now We Are a Hundred

    Alaina presents us such a deep, heartfelt and one feels, accurate account of the taut relationship between A.A.Milne and his son Christopher Robin.
    I particularly admire the character analysis the playwright specifies for each of the three roles, which clearly show how this wonderful play should be performed, keeping loyal to the story and the characters. I also like the sweet scene titles, wouldn't it be nice to have each shown on the stage!
    A very good full length play with great, real, roles.

    Oh and there is a reason I'm called Christopher....

  • Christopher Plumridge: APEX PREDATOR

    The realism throughout this play makes it so believable. How a couple of jerks out camping can, when building each other up, turn quite nasty.
    Carnes sets the scene perfectly, the tension builds towards a gripping ending then the finale is a perfect cliff hanger.
    Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: a seussified grindr date

    Ha! This is one unconventional messed up date!
    It all happens so quick, as quick as Sams lines in prose.
    A clever short play!

  • Christopher Plumridge: An Ant Named Sue

    It's often said that some creatures on earth are far brighter than us humans, even ants.
    Thus is a fun, eye opening conversation between human and ant, with some great lines thrown in.
    Poor Adam the Ant....
    Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: I WILL NEVER PLAY HAMLET

    What a character Eric is! We all know an Eric, the nearly was actor, full of talent and ability but never seems to get the big break. Alas poor Eric, we know him well.
    This is a great monologue and subtle wit builds on each line.
    Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: They're In There

    The slow build in tension makes this play so good, so taught, is it all in poor Mr Kaplins head?
    From a playwright of so much brilliant comedy comes this horror curveball. A clever play which challenges reality against mental disturbance. Then there's the killer final line.
    Brilliant! Check out the audio production on THE UGLY RADIO podcast.
