  • Christopher Plumridge: The Wrap Up

    Oh, these poor, low level, pyramid builders! This is such a funny play, in Mr Bussers typical, brilliant style, as we see our two hapless heroes doing their best for a tyrant boss and a pharaoh whose somewhat early demise is quite an inconvenience!

    So many great lines about technology which doesn't exist yet, but my favourite line: "more gods than you can shake a serpent at"

    Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Sincerest Condolences

    SINCEREST CONDOLENCES is a truly hilarious, darkly funny, morbid masterpiece which will be a hoot to stage! Surely there is a nod to Monty Python in this piece, such is the control this clever undertaker has over their gullible townsfolk?
    I love this play so much, please someone stage it so I can come to watch! In fact I give this my highest praise - 'I wish I had written it!' Bravo!

  • Christopher Plumridge: 15 Seconds

    There's something in the way this is staged, which makes play even more stark and emotional. The shafts of light over each character as they speak, shate their light or cannot. 15 seconds.... that's all it took to tear apart so many lives and loves. Sadly, this event is all too common. Bruce has painted a truly heartbreaking tale of love and loss in this excellent short play. I'm close to tears.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Tickle That Dragon

    I confess that I have not read a single Potter book, or barely seen any of the films, so I very much doubt I'd be invited into this particular group! Rex gives us a fun fan group of all things Harry, where all members are potty on Potter! Great fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: 12, ANGRY, MEAN

    Ha, well done Paul, I do like to be tricked! Read this, stage this or watch this, either way it won't end the way you think. Great fun in such a short play!

  • Christopher Plumridge: The Early Flight

    This play would be so much fun to stage, and indeed to watch, as we see Evan take an early flight home with the expectation of catching his wife having an affair.
    I love the way the playwright offers us alternative endings, both equally funny and fitting. Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Monster in the House

    This is a gritty and real examination of emetophobia, tastefully and sympathetically tackled by the playwright. I admit I hadn't heard the word before but I was aware of the condition. Liv brings this condition to life so very well. A great monologue.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Pink

    Ah, it's not just Victoria who has a secret, seems Justin has too! And this comes as quite a surprise to innocent Marie. This is a fun short play of misunderstandings which would be fun to watch and surely to stage.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Ground Control to Baby Tom

    Planet Earth is blue, and there's nothing they can do.... or can they? Two women on a mission orbiting Jupiter's are unexpectedly faced with a difficult decision in this smart short play. They must chose which of them would be the best mother, but how can that be known? A clever concept and a two great roles for the actors. Nice.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Heist!

    Ha! I love these two bumbling buffoons! This would be so much fun to stage and to watch, as we witness Gene and Billy the Kid try to steel the Hope Diamond from the Smithsonian. Lisa cleverly introduces us to a character who remains unseen, but has a real presence in the play. This is a hilarious, fast paced comedy which children will love to be in the audience for, and adults will love it too. Very funny!
