Zombies! Who doesn't love Zombies. I love Zombies and this Zombedy (Zombie Comedy), Cole gives the Zombies some depth, makes them almost human(ish), and then does what everyone should do in a Zombie story. I'll let you read to find out. I definitely recommend this show and we are excited to produce it at BAE!

What a fantastic twisty script about a not-to-distant future that could be real life for many cultures on this planet right now in many ways. Brenton has done a bit of world building to show this as a future situation and it's horrifying, yet this fantastic playwright has handled the scenario with the finesse of an oil painter. Messy, yet hardened, beautiful story about thoughtfulness and possibly love. Possibly. This is a great show, highly recommend!

Aly Kantor is an amazing writer and I've enjoyed reading Aly's shows over and over again. reANIMA is incredible. There's so much drama and love and nuance in this short script that keeps you engaged. The complexity of the characters, the arc, and the tension gets you through the story without feeling like a story. You know it's a great show when you get to the end and you want to see what tomorrow for these characters will look like and the day after that. Amazing show.

I really dive into the endings. Alan Kilpatrick doesn't let you down as he develops a wonderful character in Thicket. An actors dream. A wonderful android in Tatiana, a performers dream. Add in wonderful dialogue, loads of tension both from health and generational aspects, and you have a show that is fantastic and will have you thinking about it, long after you've finished. Highly recommend!

What a fun play. Samara Siskind has created a light-hearted mockumentary of sorts about getting the viral shot. She uses Becky as a way to create levity and potentially change the way Jim is. There's karma and charisma in this show. Selected for Good Vibes Summer on the premise that this show does have some massively good vibes and a great message in a world that is run by the 24/7 social media cycle. Great show, highly recommend.

What a fun show with a fantastic arc to it all. I think the best part is the solution that Meredith comes up with out of love for her friend Jacob and a desire for him to find his happiness. This is a great show for the, "let's try this and hope for the best," crowd.

We selected this show because our panel of experts from all over the world believed in the show and as executive producer, I believe in it as well. Awesome show Trent.

This. Is. Incredible. Such a beautiful, awe-inspiring story about Gabriel Salvatore the III's life. Steven G. Martin hits all the notes, hits all the feels, hits every possible way to feel about the situation that Gabriel is born into and then leaves you thinking about this for hours, if not days. Steven makes Gabriel so real and so lonely and forces you as an audience to empathize and agonize over what has happened. Even now about an hour after reading this, I'm still thinking about this show. This might be the best show I've read in 2024!

Roger Powers has built a wonderful show and the best part is that he's done a wonderful job staying true through the end with Mister Rogers character.

I love the absurdist feel, wrapped into a message that our country really needs right now, if not the world. Powers mocks the political system by taking two of the most powerful political strategists from each side of the aisle, forcing retirement on them, only to have them work together to bring in the long-time deceased Mister Rogers' ghost. Powers powerful words will echo throughout this political season. Won't you be my neighbor?

What a wonderful short play about good vibes or trying to find them, summer, escaping, and an education on wine, sort of. Brent takes on a beautiful adventure to Northern Michigan, sprinkles in nodes of humor, and quick shifts to keep you guessing. As he does this Brent escalated the absurdity in it all, showing no limits. Awesome show.
