  • Christopher Plumridge: Putt-Putt

    Simply hilarious! I love the whole concept of this play along with the crazy idea Jeff comes up with and his colleagues reaction to the proposal is priceless!
    Putt-Putt, or Crazy Golf as it's known here in the UK, is just that, crazy fun.
    It would be so much fun for four actors to spar off each other, and a delight for audiences! Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia

    This play with the exceedingly long one word title, starts off funny, in fact it is funny throughout, but for the sad position Elle finds herself in.
    A simple haircut should be just that, simple, routine. But Elle is caught up with so many anxiety, OCD issues that an otherwise pleasant and social activity becomes such a daunting task. Audiences will feel for Elle, and appreciate Nora's patience and perseverance, for they are both well flashed out, believable characters.
    A play well worthy of it's recent award, I'm sure more will follow!

  • Christopher Plumridge: You Damn Well Can Take It With You

    Well no, you can't take it with you. But Ted knows fully well that the Egyptians DID take it all with them. Ted's stance against his estranged wife's new found love is as hilarious as it is sad, in equal measure, for he's only 50 and looking on to infinity in the afterlife.
    The set and costume for this short play would provide some wonderful fun for any production to craft.
    So unique!

  • Christopher Plumridge: The Furniture Store

    It's as if Tarantino had had too much to drink (or smoked something odd) and decided to film a scene in a fully stocked, empty furniture store. Maybe he did and Prillaman was the scribe?
    This play is wonderfully bizarre, it's fast and slick, it's brilliantly odd. Now I'm left so pleased that Kenneth is free, although I really don't know why.
    I absolutely love this play!

  • Christopher Plumridge: GOONY BIRD HAT

    "What a hoot this play is!" might say the goony bird from said hat! This play is a hilarious, whimsical take on two such 18th century dramatists, looking splendid one might say in their 250 year old regalia! No wonder her tea has gotten cold and the book grown. This had me smiling throughout and one big burst of hilarity at the line 'Powder Puff Monkeys'. Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Gravestones

    Graveyards at night always take on a whole new feeling, spooky and atmospheric, yes. But sadly some are simply being destroyed and it's down to these three to find Camille's grandmother, sorry GREAT grandmother, before this one is built on.
    Unlike many spooky stories, this one doesn't turn out the way you think it might.
    Oh, and I would love to have one of those 'ghost apps' on my phone!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Poor Man's Poison

    Wow! POOR MAN'S POISON is such a gut wrenchingly desperate play, it's sad, gritty, audiences will will squirm in their seats. But this needs to be told and Matthew tells the cautionary tale without holding back.
    Drugs can be, and so often are, devastating to those consuming them and those close to them, none more so than meths.
    Excellently told.

  • Christopher Plumridge: A Lot of Time to Think

    Chilling, in the worst possible way.
    This has the making of a Hollywood blockbuster, where audiences are gripped in this claustrophobic and suffocating story.
    Exactly the sort of film I choose not to watch, for it is my greatest fear.
    All said this is superbly written and the ending took me completely by surprise.

  • Christopher Plumridge: i am coming home

    So much mystery, so much still unsolved. The formatting of this play is like an open scene, leaving the actors and director to take this in any direction they please.
    The kidnapping of a young girl will be difficult to get over, even after 15 years have passed, but one of her old friends has recollections, or are they just hallucinations?
    A very tense and intriguing play, so clever!

  • Christopher Plumridge: CONVERGENCE (A Different Christmas Story)

    This has it all going on, strangers, family affairs, arguments, historic car crashes, cake and booze, a typical British Christmas... if you live in an Agatha Christie style soap opera!
    The characters are all well constructed and all fun in their own ways.
    CONVERGENCE is a lively, slick play, which will keep audiences guessing.
    A thumbs up from a Brit!
