    Heartbreaking beauty. Yes, yes, the play is well structured, paced and composed ... but oh the heart swells when reading these words. A powerful and necessary play. Very well done.

  • Cam Eickmeyer: Once Upon a Dream by Bethany Dickens Assaf

    Humans love to build chance interactions into a global theme of fate or destiny. Is it wrong? Maybe. But then again there is always that chance that it IS fate staring dreamily into your eyes. This short play lets you have a taste of that dream but also leaves room for reality to pop in and ruin it. Very well written.

    Engaging sound effects and imagery set the stage for an eerie audio play. If you've been in the northwoods before you know that sense of haunting cold in the dead of winter. Great title too!

    Such unsettling power in such a short play. A boy facing the ocean between youth and adulthood must face fear, power and so much more with everything on the line. Readers and audiences alike will need more than one time through to soak up all this play has to offer.

    Pure, awkward fun. It's silly without going too far. Also so so so relatable. To be honest I want to meat the cat!

    You're told the goal is happily ever after, but the goal is truly understanding each other and loving even the quirks. This one-minute play captures all of this beautifully.

    Even the worst of us have a shot at doing things right the next time around, as long as we keep trying. The story of "Alfred" redeeming himself slightly from a horrific past by dabbling in arts in his next life solicits a hopeful feeling to go with the threat of living eternity on a shelf if he fails. Witty, funny and enjoyable!

  • Cam Eickmeyer: White Men Sit Around and Talk About the 1980s by Bethany Dickens Assaf

    A tale as old as time, men whining about the good ol days when they didn't have so many expectations. I'd feel bad for these tormented souls if I could just tune up the volume on the tiny violin speakers. Funny takedown of a culture. Using "have you seen that movie" in place of actual conversation is so spot on it hurts.

    Goofy, funny and smart. Great combination for a comedy festival that will keep the audience engaged throughout as it twists some standard humor tropes into fresh laughs.
