  • A Certain Pedigree by Rachel Feeny-Williams
    13 Jan. 2023
    “ Rachel Williams’ short piece “A Certain Pedigree” is such a powerful play. A wonderful juxtaposition between what it means to be liked and to be somewhat…different. Benji is the new pup of the family that might seem him as useless to his owners, only to realize he has a true friend group by his side.

    A lovely play that audiences will rave over. Produce and produce again! Well done! ”
  • Glass of Water (a short play) by Hayley St. James
    13 Jan. 2023
    “ Hayley's short piece, "A Glass Of Water" is a cute little hilarious comedy that "influences" you as you read. This play felt both real and imagined and it brought me back to times of competing in play festivals. The play will definitely enhance you in a way that is magical. Even though Hayley's was intended for a festival, it will work well anywhere. Bravo! ”
  • Bagged by Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn
    12 Jan. 2023
    “ “Bagged” by PRISKRON is a fun play that deals with juxtaposition between what it means to truly “clean up“ after your dog and the backlash that may follow.

    A hilarious one-minute play that everyone can relate to. Well done! ”
  • Can You Hear Me Now? by Morey Norkin
    11 Jan. 2023
    “ NORKIN’s play, “Can You Hear Me Now?” is such a fun read! The play is a sweet juxtaposition between what it means to live life with a smartphone and to be the ones who once created it. Many people, young and old, will fight over the themes and arguments of this play. Well done! ”
  • So Much In Common by Karen Fix Curry
    10 Jan. 2023
    “ “One Elective. One.”…no wonder Helen’s mother made her choose just one elective…

    Karen Fix Curry play is sweet yet shocking. The way it moves is like a breath of fresh air….until the climax that is. At least both girls won’t have to face high school alone.

    The perfect play for two young females. Bravo! ”
  • Ask M.A.T.E.R by Rachel Feeny-Williams
    9 Jan. 2023
    “ Rachel's short piece "Ask M.A.T.E.R" is the cutest piece of theatre I've ever read. The comedy is well-thought out and lovely to read. I hope to see this piece produced over and over again. Bravo! ”
  • Chasing the Train by Rachel Feeny-Williams
    9 Jan. 2023
    “ WILLIAMS’ short piece “Chasing The Train” is lovely look into what it means for a woman’s self esteem. She can be brought down by many things, and as Rachel’s play suggests; pretty much everything!

    This fast paced play is a wonderful juxtaposition between how a girl wants to feel and truly how she NEEDS to. A beautiful story that will forever stand the test of time.

    It’s honest, relatable, and true. It’s beautifully executed, prolific, and smashing well done! ”
  • I'm Gonna Need You to Log off for Me by Daniel Prillaman
    8 Jan. 2023
    “ PRILLAMAN’s short comedy, “I’m Gonna Need You To Log Off For Me” is interesting. Not the bad kind;…The GOOD kind. Mona Lisa now has two right thumbs and lobster for her left. I laughed wholeheartedly!

    Not only is PRILLAMAN’s comedy hilariously good, it begs the question, “What is art? Could art be truly anything?” It will make you smile. It will make you feel something.
    “I’m Gonna Need You To Log Off For Me” is a wonderful blended juxtaposition between art and technology. Produce it over and over.

    I want to direct this. Well done! ”
  • But Why by Rachel Feeny-Williams
    7 Jan. 2023
    “ WILLIAMS’ piece “But Why” is truly masterful. A beautiful juxtaposition between the thoughts of what should happen before a woman is forty.
    This play will make you think. Make you want to fight. Make you want to take a side, yet feel for both characters.

    I don’t say this very often, but “Read. Produce. Repeat.” A lovely piece that any theatre should get their hands on, and one that two females would sure love to play. Brilliant. Well written. Well done.

  • Sweet Sweet Christmas (a monologue) by Scott Sickles
    7 Jan. 2023
    “ SICKLES’ monologue, “Sweet, Sweet Christmas” is a heartfelt yet breaking tale of a woman who can’t have sugar due to diabetes. And she’s sad about it. Enraged.

    “Sweet, Sweet Christmas” brings light to the heart of Christmas and the traditions that follow. Sickles does a wonderful job of taking characters and making them so believable you can see it, as if they’re right there. As if you are with them. A wonderful written monologue for any seasoned actress. Bravo. ”
