  • Fireworks or Gunshots by Wyn Alyse Thomas
    25 Jul. 2022
    “ This is a first of the plays that read of THOMAS' work, and might I say Bravo! The fact that she can take a topic so real, such as mass shooting, coupled with the brilliance and relatability of real life. Definitely a must-read. So perfect for today's society! ”
  • The Origin of Zeke Wolf by Dana Hall
    19 Jul. 2022
    “ This is a first I have read of HALL’s plays and might say, this is an origin story like no other! So relatable. Bravo! ”
  • CHANGELING by Monica Cross
    19 Jul. 2022
    “ CROSS does a fantastic job here creating a world that seems to POP right out a storybook — perhaps maybe ‘Sleeping Beauty’ or something. Perfect for young actors and audiences. I could definitely see a young drama performing this production soon! Bravo! ”
  • Back Talk by Genia Miller
    17 Jul. 2022
    “ MILLER takes dark and sinister to a whole new level…With an Alexa! This is the first I’ve heard and read of MILLER, and might I say, “Back Talk” was quite funny. Perfect for competition. Bravo! ”
  • A Frozen Window by Cole Hunter Dzubak
    17 Jul. 2022
    “ COLE is one hell of a beast! A mastermind. From someone who is currently in his undergrad, but never actually had a roommate, I completely understand this concept through and through. It’s not only roommates, friends can be that way to. From start to finish you had me gripped! Bravo! ”
  • Transferring Kyle by Jonathan Cook
    16 Jul. 2022
    “ This is a first for me, and COOK is one heck of a playwright.
    When I began reading, Transferring Kyle, I thought to myself, “WTF….you can’t just make people change unwillingly…”, but as I continued to read, I found the true meaning or maybe something of it, behind why Jonathan wrote this play, and it changed my perspective in the blink of an eye. It reads: …oh who I am kidding, I’m not giving that away!
    Now go read “Transferring Kyle”, and see for yourself, and see what change can do to a person. ”
  • Vagabond by Ethan Homeyer
    16 Jul. 2022
    “ One Word: OMYGOD! I was lucky enough to read one of the earlier drafts of Vagabond, and it safe to say that Vagabond is a real heartthrob. If I was ever given the opportunity to direct a show, this would the one. I could see this in Off-Broadway Theatre. Perfect for dinner theatre as well. HOMEYER takes the story of two strangers, and turns it into a night that feels like the audience is in the bar with them. Make it feel like customers, casually observing! Vagabond is something to see.
    Bravo, my man! Bravo! ”
  • I Knew Him by DC Cathro
    16 Jul. 2022
    “ This is the first I’ve of CATHRO’s plays, and might I say, “I Knew Him” was a treat!
    The way the characters mellowed together, with crisp, clear dialogue. Oooo! Perfect! Bravo! I’d love to see it produced! ”
  • WHAT'S APP, DOC? by Marj O'Neill-Butler
    15 Jul. 2022
    “ As a grandson, I’ve been through this same exact situation before. Every time I visit my grandparents, I try and help my grandma, yet she doesn’t understand. Very frustrating!…
    BUTLER does a fantastic job of mixing with new. A play we all need to enjoy! Bravo! ”
  • Incoming Male by Bruce Karp
    15 Jul. 2022
    “ One word: Wow. Karp and I are one in the same. Both having plays that bring LGBTQIA+ to light. As I’ve read other recommendations of “Incoming Male”, it is safe to say, they are not wrong. This is the first play I’ve read of KARP’s and let me tell you…he or “Incoming Male” don’t disappoint. This made me feel something…let me just say, high school was a BUST….I digress. I have found something to believe in. INCOMING MALE needs produced, and now. Directing it would be my dream. ”
