  • TIME CODE by Kerr Lockhart
    29 Jun. 2022
    “ The detailed description of the setting - a recording studio. The quiet of the characters wearing headphones and speaking in low tones. Even the drinking glasses are muzzled. And you’re enjoying the memories of two older actors commenting on their film from 50 years ago. Then the detail of the film being viewed. And a memory triggered that pierces through the quiet and leaves you stunned. Kerr Lockhart has crafted an amazing piece of theater! Wonderful roles, especially for two older actors. Would love to see this staged! ”
  • Hyperbole Heights by Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn
    29 Jun. 2022
    “ It’s no exaggeration to say Hyperbole Heights is a pure delight! Imagine the Marx Brothers, the Three Stooges, and Rocky & Bullwinkle all going to the same elementary school. That’s how zany and fun this play is! Jacquie Floyd does it again! ”
  • Samantha's Friend by Christopher Plumridge
    28 Jun. 2022
    “ Christopher Plumridge is a master of suspense and other worldliness. A really interesting family dynamic that intensifies as we see more of Samantha’s Friend. Guaranteed to raise a few goosebumps! ”
  • The Known Universe (Part Three of The Second World Trilogy) by Scott Sickles
    25 Jun. 2022
    “ THE KNOWN UNIVERSE is the inevitable conclusion to Scott Sickles’ brilliant, spellbinding, emotion-packed SECOND WORLD TRILOGY. And although I say “inevitable” this is a journey that must be taken. It will take a toll on you for sure. But you will also experience love in its purest form. And love rarely comes without heartache. Read the other recommendations. They will convince you, as they did me, to read this play and the others. Once you start, there’s no turning back. ”
  • Pangea (Part Two of The Second World Trilogy) by Scott Sickles
    23 Jun. 2022
    “ PANGEA reintroduces us to the 11-year-old protagonists of MARIANAS TRENCH, now both adults and accomplished in their respective scientific fields. That these two survived, both physically and in terms of their love, is quite a relief. But their emotional, hopeful reunion is set against the doubtful survival of the planet. Another beautifully crafted story from Scott Sickles. And although I can’t help but think of this in relation to the first play in his trilogy, PANGEA absolutely stands on its own. I don’t know where the final chapter will take me, but I’m ready to go. ”
  • Marianas Trench (Part One of The Second World Trilogy) by Scott Sickles
    21 Jun. 2022
    “ I feel as though I just completed a master class in playwriting. Beautifully written, fully developed characters that we instantly care for, and a story that pulls us in and refuses to let go. Scott Sickles sets his play in a divided America that is uncomfortably close to where the country is headed. I found myself feeling despair and hopeful for Anzor and Teddy. And though I fear what may be ahead for these two, I have no choice but to finish the trilogy! ”
  • A Higher Power by John Busser
    20 Jun. 2022
    “ John Busser, the true miracle is thy sense of humor! The description says 15 minutes, but the running time could easily double as actors are forced to hold for laughs. A truly righteous play, dude! ”
  • GUILTY by Monica Cross
    15 Jun. 2022
    “ Chocolate cake is irresistible. What I wouldn’t do for a piece of chocolate cake right now. Building up to the punchline in “Guilty” is no piece of cake, but Monica Cross pulls it off beautifully. I feel guilty for laughing. ”
  • The Disappearance of Greta by Christopher Plumridge
    14 Jun. 2022
    “ A frightening WWII setting that Chris Plumridge manages to infuse with humor, humanity, and magic while maintaining the gravity of the situation. As others have mentioned, this story has a lot of room for further growth as a screenplay or whatever. But as it stands now, it is a mind blowing one-act! ”
  • My Beloved, My Axiom by Aly Kantor
    13 Jun. 2022
    “ If there’s an official Aly Kantor fan club, please sign me up! Brilliant, comic writing. Wonderful plot/character twists within a simple setting and short timeframe. And let me just say, kerning jokes are not easy, but Aly pulls them off effortlessly. This is bound to become a festival favorite! ”
