  • Ian Donley: Out of the Woods

    This is such a fresh and theatrically retelling of one of Greek mythology's well-known stories. Weibezahl's dialogue is sharp and focused, and through it the pace of the play maintains a steady flow.

  • Ian Donley: One Night In September

    Dana Hall writes this script with delicacy that makes the navigation of sexual assault on college campuses an informative and raw experience. Plus, "Girl, I hide so far back in my closet I could’ve come out in Narnia" is probably one of my favorite lines of all time (but that's just a personal reference). Produce this play!

  • Ian Donley: Tink in the Clink

    This play is so funny! I can totally imagine how the staging of this play would be and I'd be really excited to see this live!

  • Ian Donley: Forever Yours, Olive Thomas

    John Arco writes a humorous and playful one-woman show that is filled with personality and interesting storytelling. This would be a great show to stage in a black box theatre, which would allow the audience to feel like Olive Thomas is speaking to them like you're catching up with a friend at a coffee shop.

  • Ian Donley: The Two of Us

    I love how Hass has taken one of the most well-known settings and added a fresh look into it. If we live in a world where cowboys can have a movie written and made about them time after time, then why not allow everyone in the queer community that same opportunity? Hass' script is entertaining and full of nuances that an actor would love to play.

  • Ian Donley: Liberation

    "Liberation" is a sweet, nuanced, and fresh look at the most horrific period of humanity. Tennant writes with precision and sharpness that makes these characters come to life on the page.

  • Ian Donley: The Sudden Urge to Jump

    Chelsea Sutton's "The Sudden Urge to Jump" is a fresh portrayal of grief filled with rich characters and a compelling story. I got to see a reading of this play done via Zoom. Even with the lack of production elements, the script is so well-written to where it stands out on its own.

  • Ian Donley: A Lovers' Quarrel

    "A Lovers' Quarrel" is a dynamic and emotionally rich play! It has the makings of being a theatrical classic and would make a great story to put on any stage! The characters are multifaceted, and the story builds tremendously. This play knows how to pull your heartstrings effectively.

  • Ian Donley: Stuck in Street View

    This play is like "The Twilight Zone" meets AI. Lou Jones has written a modern-day psychological thriller that will have audiences intrigued to watch to the very end (which has a plot twist not even I saw coming).

  • Ian Donley: SECOND BANANA

    "Second Banana" is a heartfelt portrayal of overcoming obstacles to maintain a legacy, even if it's just for a high school football team. The dynamics between the characters Alles writes is distinct and makes them memorable. This would be an entertaining play to have produced!
