  • Christopher Plumridge: I Hate My Afterlife

    This play is such a sweet look at the afterlife, if there is one. We see Tammy, taken way before her time, and enduring her afterlife without mobile phones...oh the horror! Ghostly yes, but real, relatable and touching. This would also be great fun to perform and to watch, the actor playing Mark would have a lot of fun being spooked. Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: How to Tie a Cravat (a monologue) (Playing on the Periphery #2)

    Oh, young Bertram is wise beyond his tears, he's got this all figured out. He understands why he's been bullied and knows his place as the victim.
    Bertram is a great character, a wonderful role for a young actor to take on, so long as they know the difference between a neck tie and a cravat! Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: All of the Napkins are Wet (a monologue) (Playing on the Periphery #1)

    Daphne is so sassy, so grown up, yet she's surrounded by immature children! OK, she's 7, coming up to the grand old age of 8, as she has to endure yet another tea party! The way she speaks of her allies and friends is hilarious. "Where's a flame thrower when you need it?" I love this!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Marvin and the Muses

    Most writers get their inspiration from any number of sources, Marvin here gets his from his new, sexy muse. So when the Muse of Tragedy comes along she finds herself somewhat uninvited.
    This is a fun quip of a play, slightly naughty too, but that's understandable when you chose a young attractive muse over an old hag! Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Alpha Omega Incorporated

    When the powers that be, whomever they are, decide your time is up, it's up. You either accept it or kick up a fight. But what if it's the biggest job ever?
    Joe presents us this scenario as New comes in to replace old, you can't help feel sorry for God, he (or her) has been in the position for billions of years, it's hard to let go. I do hope they get to enjoy their retirement on Eros.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Uploads

    If only we could also train STRAUSS to Bach, maybe we could Handel the future which is being orchestrated here, as it continues Chopin up all these writers work on the NPX Liszt! For now, let's listen to our Elgars, and put a Holst on this machine!

    A clever little play and one to take heed of. In the words of a certain Bear, 'I am in turmoil, I mean IMMORTAL!'

    Space travel is naturally high risk, especially for this mission on its return from humankinds first exploration to Mars. The stakes are high, the tension mounts, it's gripping and tense as we wait for something to go wrong, for it seems inevitable the way Joe has skillfully crafted this short play. But the genius of this is the twist, which audiences will not see coming. With thoughtful production, this would make an excellent audio drama. Very good!

  • Christopher Plumridge: After Aulis

    Greek mythology is somewhat of a myth to me, but Aly has created a wonderful two hander here where Archilles and his almost bride meet in the underworld. Their conversation is slick and full of modern banter, which makes me want to know more about Greek legends. Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Surprise!

    Oooh Trish! Debra has created a fine short play here, leading us down a path of reconciliation, an attempt to relight the marital fires. But all is not as it seems, when Kraig comes home to tell of his own plans. Just when you think the twists have done twisting, bang! Heaven knows what their daughter will think of it all when she comes home from camp! Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: The Last Deck Chair in the Resort

    Hell have no fury as two women fighting over the last deck chair! I have witnessed my wife on such a similar conflict of sun lounger, which thankfully I managed to quickly defuse. So this battle of wills is so very believable, if only the hotel would put out more deck chairs this might have been avoided! This is a wonderful, fun, short play, fully deserving of the many awards it's won. Great!
