  • Christopher Plumridge: HO HO WHATEVER

    Ha, this is one fun Christmas play, as we see Santa all fed up, but as is so often the case, a woman runs the show. Soon enough he's back in the sleigh and about to head off on his yearly global present giving adventure.
    But there's also some pathos here, as the playwright touches on the ever increasing online world of shopping, which threatens the magic of the season.
    And in typical Brandon style, she throws in a humdinger of a final line!
    Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: You're Live

    Now here's a fun reminder to keep things real rather than getting swallowed up online, almost literally for these two! A hilarious short which would be a hoot to watch or perform, and at no point does the pace drop, even with so many freezes.
    I would love to see this performed!

  • Christopher Plumridge: THE CHANGE

    Ooooh, what starts as a seemingly innocent tale of a lady of a certain age, suddenly turns very dark at the end.
    I agree with another recommendation for this darkly funny play, it needs to be much longer. More please!

  • Christopher Plumridge: JUST A BIT OF HARMLESS FUN

    Kids messing about with an Ouija Board in the hands of Julie Brandon are surely asking for trouble.
    Does trouble come, best read this fun play yourselves to find out.
    Plus there's the hallmark Brandon twist at the end to enjoy! Great fun.

  • Christopher Plumridge: How To Kiss A Goth And Other Curses (10-minute play)

  • Christopher Plumridge: SWEET DREAMS

    Haha, here's another Brandon curveball!
    Once you see a twist, another comes along making you wonder if there'll be another!
    Great, dark and fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Ignore the Random Bear

    Wow, such a deep exploration of grief, so very personal. Yet so much hidden, like the Bear.
    This would make a great performance piece, or a worthwhile study for a student group.
    I would love to see this performed!
    And for those who know, it reminds me of The Gorilla Illusion.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Christmas Claire

    A lovely little Christmas cocktail this is, bitter, but with a sweet after taste. Nice

  • Christopher Plumridge: Last Call Christmas

    LAST CALL CHRISTMAS island lovely, bitter sweet short play. Like a Hallmark movie, only so much better and far more believable. No spoilers here, hence is the theme of the play. Better still, read it yourself. Really enjoyable and the perfect amout of emotion.

  • Christopher Plumridge: IZZY, THE GUNNER OF DONETSK: A MONOLOGUE

    Wow, this is profound!
    We hear of soldiers languishing in hospital, never really knowing their stories, but here we listen to poor Elijah telling his story though immense pain and hurt. A truly real character in an excellent monologue which will prove quite a challenge to the bravest actor.
