Ha! Poor Dick, though he should know by now where to find that all important button!
He's even sought help from the upstanding Julian but was this a good move?
A fun short frolic in the bedroom!

I have a new favourite playwright! Brenton has a gift for creating wonderful, deep characters within seconds, be they human, puppets, or in this case a raccoon.
Now, you can't go wrong with the premise 'a woman walks into a bar with a raccoon' and in this tender play about grief, there are some laugh out loud moments, having an actor dressed as said raccoon will bring the bar down. Superb!

I never thought I'd write the words 'puppet induced goosebumps' but now I have.
In the sequel Ace and Loopy are brought back to life in the most beautiful way, no spoilers here as that would be an injustice.
Read this play and its prequel, better still, produce them so I can come to watch.

Please can we have more of Ace and Loopy, PLEASE Brenton!!

Oh my word! Or rather the puppets words! This is a beautiful short play packed with so many emotions and just the right amount of gentle humour.
I would love to see a Peculiar Puppets of Philip Platt show!
A gorgeous play.

Simple and stunning, so much said in one short monologue. This is a beautiful notion, to think that love lost can still remain in some form, in this case in a bench where lovers meet.
Thank you for writing this Brenton.

This is a very deep and personal monologue, one which struck a chord in my heart. For although I am a man, I've felt this very feeling, long ago now and healed, but the memory lives on like a scar. I do feel that if this playwright wrote 'TO THE GIRL WHO DIDN'T LOVE ME AFTER ALL' it would be as if she tapped into my mind, clever writing!
Lindsay has such a power to portray deep emotions, and this monologue is another fine example.
Excellent!

Hahaha!! Monty Python meets Up Pompeii by the expert hand of Mr Norkin!
I was fully expecting a walk on part for Franky Howard, such is the brilliant humour, double entendre names and a smattering of dad jokes.
More Norkinus, more!

What if we all work to rule? But as said, aren't rules there to be broken? Well, these three cops sure don't want to break any rules, at any cost.... more than their jobs worth. This would be a fun and unique play to stage, along with the technical challenge of the umbrella teetering high above them in the wind. Great fun!

I recently heard an excellent production of this play by Gather by the Ghost Light.
This is a sweet, tender play, where the relationship between the two characters is reflected in the love and partnership of the two female swans (a beautiful, real story in itself). The connection here is inspired, another great play by Minigan.
Oh...and no swans were injured in the making of this play, thankfully!

Claudia's UNITED PLAYS OF AMERICA are a fun and varied snapshot of each state.
Here, in Idaho, two people are hiking, but it soon turns out one could be in a dire situation... or maybe not!?
