  • Christopher Plumridge: Crack

    'If you go down to the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise' Well certainly passerby Kate got her surprise. This is darkly funny with a great twist at the end. Dig yourself into this play before someone catches you!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Dirk Savagewood and the Mad Scientist

    I love a 'Play Noir' so could not pass up such a title as DIRK SAVAGEWOOD AND THE MAD SCIENTIST. Simple in it's plot line it goes straight to the point in a hilarious way. Even in Dirks most precarious situation he still finds time to admire the broad who got him in that predicament in the first place! Plus I've never really seen the importance of my own neck until reading this. Great fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Sophisticated

    SOPHISTICATED by Mackling is a sweet two hander, where the author explores a young woman's wish to be accepted at her new college. Her reasoning's are understandable, to blend in yet stand out, all the while being her own personality. Something tells me Sophie will have a promising career ahead of her.

  • Christopher Plumridge: It Is in the Wall

    Surely there is a better place to dabble with the occult than the church bathroom floor! This is such a fun, spooky play with twists I did not see coming. I think this would make a great piece for a youth group to perform, each actor would have lots of fun with the roles and it could be staged quite spookily. Great fun!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Dragged Out

    This is such a beautiful two hander which had me close to tears, happy tears, by the end! What a privilege to be a fly on the wall as Gavin's mother arrives at his apartment a day early (mother's have a right to do this, unannounced!)
    Acceptance can be tough for some older generations, but there is far more depth to this wonderful story.
    I would love to see this play staged and not giving away the ending I would love to see how Mom gets on in the scene that would follow! Thanks for the happy tears!

  • Christopher Plumridge: The Apothecary

    Dark and gothic, I see this as a worthy scene in Sleepy Hollow or His Dark Material. Daniel sets the scene swiftly and expertly, so we are drawn into this short play instantly. Strong characters make it believable, but the stage directions really set it off, especially the last at the end of the play, which makes me wonder just what will happen the next morning. Excellent!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Dungeons, Dragons and Daquiris

    Have you ever wondered what dwarfs, dragons and other mythical beings get up to when not fighting in films or story books? No, neither have I. But anyway here's the answer, they organise posh soirée's in suburbia, at least according to Rachel in this subtly funny two hander, which would be great fun to stage!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Follow the Fireflies (monologue)

    Oh my, in just two pages Christian and Our New Friend introduce us to a new world where beauty and sadness intertwine, become one. Subtly and intentionally our new friend makes the audience feel guilty, yet at the same time forgives. This is a stunning monologue!

  • Christopher Plumridge: BLISSFULLY YOURS

    This is such a sweet two hander written expertly by the talented Levine. I felt the build up was a perfect (bus) journey to the beautiful monologues by each new love bird. The audience will see these two come together but will be left wondering if they make it long term, and if you're like me you'll be totally rooting for them!

  • Christopher Plumridge: Fuck Dog, or, Who's A Good Boy

    Evert part of this short play is hilarious, right from the description of set design and characters, to the funny ending, which the cat finishes with the perfect line. This dog is clever, witty, observant and above all, a good boy!
