I met Stephen a month ago. Other than the fact that I know him to be a wonderful human, I did not know his plays and hadn't had the chance to get into one. Well, I just finished Tracy Jones, and I'm not exaggerating: it's brilliant. The play hits all the moments that make you not only truly feel for these characters and what they are going through as individuals, but he does so in a way where it's (almost) okay to find the humor in it all. It's smart and witty, and I just loved it. Bravo!

Here is a fact. Peter Fenton is a marvelous writer. He's inquisitive, makes the reader take journeys they otherwise wouldn't have expected, and does so, all the while making us enjoy the ride. This play is wonderful. It's full of charisma and wit. I recommend this piece whole-heartedly! Great job, Peter!

I'm currently reading one of Peter's other works: a full-length play. This monologue, however, reminds me of his wonderful use of getting an idea across without trying to overwrite. It's quick, gets to the point, and is a nice reminder that we all (yes, even me) need to call our mothers. So far, everything I have read of Peter's work is wonderful. He is an excellent writer, and I can't wait to read more!

Philip Middleton William's effort in this one-act is wonderful and richly woven. Whenever you deal with the authenticity of grief and the rabbit hole of emotions that stem from loss, it always makes for more interesting characters and stories. He does so brilliantly here. There is a lot that happens on these pages, and the spirit shows through in the depth of the situation and the challenge it brings. Well done. I want more!

Molly, I really want to commend you. You handle complicated subjects that real people in the real world face, and you do it with authenticity. Losing close friends, couples dealing with miscarriages is heartbreaking. And the way you bring this world to life is so well done. Excellent job. I hope this goes far!

This is wonderful! What a surprise. And I was fixed right from the start. It is so lovely crafted, and the shock and twist were ones I never saw coming. Excellent work!

"Ghost Light" is a thrill ride. John does a great job of creating tension and drama, and I will admit I got a little scared (I do scare easily). The characters are authentic, as is the dialogue. Simply, I enjoyed this play. It's definitely worth the read. Great job, John!

I enjoyed this work. There was a lot in there for its length but I found it authentic and the characters rich and with depth. I think this would do well in a short form play festival. Great job!
