I would like to state that Peter is, regardless of what I have to say, an exquisite writer. What he shows here is why. With just one page he shows the magnificent beginnings of love and the overwhelming rapture it can bring us. It also shows the depth of despair when you have to say goodbye. What a lovely piece. Truly. I highly recommend it.

As is typical for Philip, he gets right to the point with "A Good Year." He is unafraid to go there and make people see not only the vulnerabilities in his characters but the complications that hit them in the face so unforgivingly. If you are looking for a piece representing his work as a whole, this is one to look at. It's powerful, engaging, and of course, well-written. I highly recommend it.

Marvelous! Absolutely marvelous. This short play is an intricate story that follows two people in a ridiculous (at least to us in the present) situation that would make any dating app today seem benign. The dialogue is fast, funny, and smart and moves with a lightning pace. All I can say is it is wonderful. Bravo!

Philip's craft and outstanding storytelling once again blow me away. This is a brilliant piece, with a story that grabs you from the start and continues to keep the reader committed to the content. It has everything you hope for: a compelling story, well-drawn characters, and outstanding dialogue. This is just a fantastic example of what we playwrights should all strive to execute -- a great play.

This is a remarkable piece of work. Funny, heartfelt, and authentic, "Last Laugh" is a piece worth reading and seeing. I am blown away by Norkin's care for these two characters and his ability to create real dramatic tension through comedy. It's inventive and well-woven into a solid play and I would pay money to see it. Truly excellent work!

Morey Norkin is a storyteller. Long-form or short, he specializes in transforming our surroundings and putting us in the middle of a scene with depth and expertise. This is a charming piece. It represents a time when I could imagine my own grandparents in their small apartment, engaged in this kind of heartfelt moment. Maybe it's the romantic in me, but this is just so lovely. Well done!

This impressive and immersive piece catapults the reader into a different time and place. Brava! To deal with delicate subjects while not beating us over the head is not easy to do, but Josephs seems to not only find the right tone but compelling dialogue. This is a strong effort and worth the read.

What a charming play. Funny, well-paced, and well-defined characters make this play a must-read for those who want a laugh. I laughed out loud in a couple of places! I'm thrilled for Alexa and look forward to reading more of her work. Outstanding effort.

What I love about this play is its build-up. I wasn't sure where it was going, but I loved it when it reached its climax. The timing and pacing make this charming play a must-read, and I would love to see this staged. With the right actors, it could be truly lovely.
