  • Scared
    17 Jul. 2022
    The initial rhyme in this place cuts to the core and will surely have the audience gripped immediately. Wyn has described perfectly in this piece how must all feel in such circumstances, and no matter how we try to protect the young from the true horror, we are all scared. Excellent work which needs to be performed.
  • Fireworks or Gunshots
    17 Jul. 2022
    This cleverly written short play, with its simply named characters, depicts the immediate reactions of shock and disbelief of an ongoing event perfectly. Very intense, disturbing, excellent!
  • Required Reading

    This is such a sweet, yet action packed mime! Having written one mime, as such, I'm intrigued to read others, and this play is truly Required Reading! Very nice!
  • Boardwalk Concessions

    Apart from many other valid points raised in other recommendations of this great two hander, Scott explores the etiquette of 'should you eat while someone is talking?'! As an Englishman, I've been in that very predicament and not really known the answer because hunger sways my thoughts.
    Oh and I love the fact that the support rodent hates him! Haha! Great.
  • The Birds
    5 Jul. 2022
    Totally ridiculous yet totally brilliant! I have never seen seagulls in this light before and it kind of made perfect sense! Yet behind the hilarity there are several morals being played out here, which is testament to Rachels fine writing ability.
    This would be so much fun to stage!
    Also I would love to find out how Rufus can train a Pidgeon.....!!

    Well, on the 22nd of the month, now many years ago, I turned 22, but this did not happen to me, how I wish it did! This is a fun experimental play, especially when the cast reveal that they know they are in a play. Confusingly brilliant!
  • Are You Comfortable?
    3 Jul. 2022
    So much said in so few words, this monologue is incredible! Lucy quickly brings us into her world to a point we feel like we've known her for years, then the real horror creeps up on us most unexpectedly, a true reflection of some of these awful shootings. Am I comfortable? No.
  • Tomorrow
    2 Jul. 2022
    TOMORROW is such an interesting short play, for there is so much left unsaid that the audience are left to make up their own minds as to why these two ladies are on plinths high above. I love this style of writing and it fascinates me!
    Throughout this play clever references are made to MacBeth, making it all the more intriguing!
  • Bev.
    2 Jul. 2022
    BEV is a dark, at times funny, look at siblings in a difficult and sad chapter of their lives. As they find themselves in stark and desperate surroundings, they are forced to face their recent past, their loss of their sister. Then along comes an awkward, sarcastic mermaid who gives them quite the ultimatum! I love this play!
  • My Life as a Teenaged Tamagotchi: A Monologue
    27 Jun. 2022
    Sometimes the best work comes to a writer at the strangest of times, and they have to write it down at that exact time otherwise it may be lost forever. In such a moment Cole gives us this brief but powerful monologue, showing that the innocence of youth can make us see our issues in a much brighter and logical light. Beautiful.
