  • Christopher Plumridge: BROTHERS

    Simple yet stunning, this is a fitting and moving tribute to two brothers, victims of a tragic antisemitic shooting. After I read this, I researched the events on the Internet to gain more understanding (I'm from the UK). Rachael has admirably shown us the devotion these brothers had to each other, their religion, and community.

  • Christopher Plumridge: Pineapple Upside Down Cake

    Ah, this play is so sweet and fun! Watching Tucker and Lemon embark on their first 'adventure' together, seeing it all from their inner thoughts as they use a fairground and its rides to describe their actions has a particular innocence and beauty. I do hope and expect Tucker and Lemon will enjoy many more fairground rides....bigger, faster, more!
    Also so there is free reign for the production and cast to perform this as they chose. Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: The Wait

    The banter between this couple is hilarious and spot on! Nearly every preparation for a night out and the wait for a taxi will have some elements of this two hander. The conversation becomes even funnier when colleague Ken is discussed, with his antics! Then.... Husband makes the worst mistake, he hesitates when his wife asks him if she looks nice in her dress.... poor Husband!
    Great fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Weather or Not (A Lost Children Story)

    I find myself drifting into the wonderful world that is Hannah Lee DeFrates mind, once again she brings us two lovely characters in a way I have never seen before. The love they have for each other is stunning, put together with an emotional tradition and you have another wonderful one act play by this brilliantly imaginative playwright. I would love to see this series of lost children plays performed together!

  • Christopher Plumridge: The Science of Never Letting Go of You (A Lost Children Story)

    Poppy and Willow, two lost children who have found themselves to be adults and having to deal with the stark realities of modern life, find a way to keep together. Hannah brings them close, even when they are apart and it's a gorgeous notion! Do read this, or better still stage it. I love Poppy and Willow!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Beyond Neverland (A Lost Children Story)

    Beyond Neverland, a fictional tale from which its characters sit fondly in our memories. Here, though, Hannah brings them back to life in such a subtle, beautiful way. Late at night, Poppy and Willow, both unable to sleep and as vulnerable as adults as they were as kids, try to deal with the passage of time. Wonderful and unique.

  • Christopher Plumridge: The Box

    How often do we live in our home and think about previous occupants, previous ghosts? And if we begin to learn about the lives of these ghosts, should we care, they are only strangers after all? This couple, whilst emptying their belongings from their home, ready to move on, are faced with this very conundrum.
    Soucey tackles this well, bringing us two separate opinions from his two characters, in a subtle, clever way. Very good!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Hey, Kiddo

    A truly gripping play, with its claustrophobic atmosphere of the hosts basement, along with clever use of camera footage and projection, makes this a terrifying piece of drama. This would be a real challenge to a fight director and also a great addition to a fright night! Great!

  • Christopher Plumridge: FUNNY WORDS, a 5-minute sketch comedy

    Haha, I would watch game shows if only they were this funny! What else can I say other than this is brilliant insanity!

    Do I want to read the G-rated version for children? NO!

    Love it!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Claire's Dilemma: A Strippers Monologue

    Wow! What can I say about this stunning monologue to give it the justice it deserves? I can't. But I will say this, it is incredible, Claire is a beautiful, troubled, broken yet stronger than ever soul expertly bought to life by the playwright. In the hands of a strong actor and astute director, this would make a compelling one woman play, one I would pay good money to watch!
