  • Christopher Plumridge: Time to Talk

    Wow, so much said, so much time spent, in one quick 'chance' meeting on a park bench. Time travel is often exaggerated, fantasized, but this gentle two hander takes it steady, subtly. I would love to know what happens next, what Peter does with this revelation and just how he would change the future of human existence. Wonderful!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Noir York City

    What can be better than a Noir PI? Three Noir PI's! This short play is so funny, so brilliantly confusing and so very Noir! And when they stick their fingers up at each other, it doesn't mean what you think it does! This would be so much fun to stage and to watch, Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Possessed by the Ex

    POSSESSED BY THE EX is such a darkly funny short play! What would you do if your ex-fiancee possesses your wife? Go out for a burger with them of course!
    This play would be so much fun for the actors, and audience alike. Aside for the dark comedy, the dialogue travels slick and fast and you are soon drawn in wondering just who will be possessed by whom and when! Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Annnd Scene (of the Crime)

    A standard scene, a police interrogation room, good cop/bad cop.... until the bell! This is so much fun and would be a hoot to perform and watch, as with each ring of the bell, the scene shifts in mood and direction. It's even more funny that good cop gets caught up in this too! Great fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Wheel of Fortune Reversed

    It takes a skilled writer to write about such a subject, our own mortality in this case, and treat it with respect, sensitivity but also gentle humour. I love this interaction between Michael and the somewhat aloof Death. Their chess games play out in the strangest strategic way, as Michael is seemingly buying himself more time. The ending is truly moving too. A big question is posed; what exactly does oblivion feel like, and should we care? I very much enjoyed this short play, in fact I want to produce it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: BRIEFS ENCOUNTERED

    Haha, a great twist on the unexpected! Will all be revealed? I expect so if Mary gets her way. This would be a brief fun play in a series of shorts, if anyone has the (Y)front to perform it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Small Parts, a one minute play for radio

    How gar would you go to get the dream job? Far enough to lose your head?
    This nervous actor certainly does not want to take things that far!

    The sound affects list at the start of this short are funny enough and tell their own story. Great, macabre fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Poor Ernie, a one minute play for radio

    A one minute film noir for radio, yes please! It's important to read the opening stage directions, for this sounds so much better in a 'film noir voice' !
    And the final line made me laugh out loud, its great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: MURDER AT THE 'ORIENT EXPRESS'

    What a fun dark comedy along the lines of Tales of the Unexpected. Although I feel that Detective Chief Inspector Pear should go back to Police school....!
    Great fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Penny

    What a lovely notion, an emotional support chicken! We often take solace and support from a pet, so why not a hen. Here, the author gives us a heartwarming play of the love between Father and daughter, you see just how close they are as they cope with their loss, very sensitively written. I do expect to see the hen at the wedding!
    Very nice!
