An absolutely hauntingly beautiful, introspective and thought-provoking monologue. It has shades of Joan Didion's "The Year of Magical Thinking" in the best way - an exquisitely written fragment of a challenging passage of life that doesn't get enough consideration, on stage or off.

Bawdy, rambunctious, with heart and even a few pearls of wisdom... if that sounds like the description of a medieval jester, you're onto why this play works so well. Wisdom through humor, and the technique of using low-brow body-function jokes to convey a lesson in shared humanity has worked well for thousands of years, and still resonates today in Jillian's wonderful "Pilloried."

All the funniest parts of The Exorcist and then some! Scott has a wickedly funny, outrageously original and creative play here, inhabited by characters with complex relationships and nuanced depths. I loved the twists and turns - I never knew where it would take me, but I was along for the ride!

Devastatingly powerful, searing to the memory and such beautiful writing.

An absolute gem of a play. Strikingly funny, with an original and effective ploy with one character desperately waiting to bite into her corndog while it's hot... but far from being a comedic gimmick, that's only the catalyst for a rapid turn into a much deeper, soul-satisfying exploration of why relationships fail. Beautifully done.

Deeply reminiscent of those teenage conversations we all had - the ones that were so deep, so powerful. This is a beautiful play, and the depth of Lily and Ron-Ann, and the nuance and complexity of their relationship, are exquisitely presented. This would be a worthy addition to an evening of one-acts, and a chance for two young actors to truly shine.

Wickedly funny, bitingly political, written with a gleeful eye on the theatricality of the corporate nightmarish dystopia we live in and the best way to present it to the shareholders of Sandra's Old Timey Yoghurt Shoppe - a global conglomerate with plans for extending their corporate domination to the moon. For a start.

If you're looking for a perfect family comedy that upends the well-worn "coming out to your family" trope with wit, style and hysterical pacing, DC Cathro has crafted a beautiful and original gem of a play with Family Holiday. It's heart-warming, screamingly funny - and carries the core belief that acceptance and love transcends all.

Stunning, profound, enigmatic - this is everything you want in a ten-minute play. It's a fiercely original look at Caliban, Ariel, and Miranda after The Tempest has passed, in every meaning of the phrase - but this is no mere playful take on Shakespeare's world; this is a scathing and devastating view of society, sexuality, and power. Beautifully done.

Wow. This beautiful play left me with tears in my eyes - just a perfect little slice of life, delving into deep, complex emotions and doing so with a deft touch. The layers to Gio and Fern, in their evolving relationship in the midst of family upheaval - and the parallels with generational disconnect and the legacy of family trauma is handled so well. This is a fantastic play.
