  • George Sapio: “Is Christmas A Commercial Holiday?” An Oral Report By Susi Kirkland

    Hilarious and will be a riot to perform. Susi, a young student with a seen-the-world-and-what-did-I-do-to-end-up-here, presents several ways in which society welcomes the whoring of traditions. Kudos to Susi's parents!

  • George Sapio: Satan v. The Indiana Abortion Ban

    What starts out as a rollicking satire turns into a... well, you'll see. The end of the world? We seem to face it daily, but this poke at the insipid, repressive hold of misogyny and superstition highpoints the absurdity of our everlasting fears. The audience...most of them, I wager...I hope...will love this.

  • George Sapio: THE BROTHER'S GRIN ...A Ten-Minute Crime Drama / Thriller

    Killer script for two wired actors. Lots of energy, lots of "what next?", lots of realizing you don't know what's happening until it's too late. And a really memorable ending!

  • George Sapio: Deeper

    A really lovely interlude between two characters who need a hug from someone who cares. The back and forth is perfect, and both Ophelia and Andrew somehow charm you despite their pain. A play with compassion and kindness, and a touching short work for two lucky actors.

  • George Sapio: Rent-A-Pet

    What a fun play! An excellent performance piece full of opportunities to create and be spontaneous. Violet needs a pet to soothe her soul, but is Spud the right...well, dog? And what does a "perfect match" really mean?

  • George Sapio: Ice Box Cake and the Man from Lima (Short One-Woman Play)

    Some things do not change much over time. Glaciers may melt, sea levels may rise, but ignorance, bigotry, and fear seem to be frustratingly resistant to erosion. "My daddy always said no white woman is safe when one of them’s around. He drummed that into my head from the day I was born till the day he died." Could have been fifty years or seconds ago; Don hits this one square. It's a sad topic, but an exceptional text for the right actor.

  • George Sapio: Tracks in the Snow

    I had the honor of serving as the Panowski award's dramaturg for this exceptional work. A poignant and truthful play that unpeels layer after layer of personal discovery. Highly recommended!

  • George Sapio: Before You Submit

    Been there, done that. We all know submission policies vary and can be difficult, but this poor playwright is finding out the hard way. I felt myself beginning to laugh, but ended up almost crying. Funny, fast, and too close to home!

  • George Sapio: Forgive Thyself

    An exercise in ontological/theological conundrums! Father Dan has his hands full (armed with the occasional tumbler of very fine whiskey) with a parishioner whose dilemma turns out to be more challenging than he was prepared for. What does his faith tell him is right? What does reality tell him about his faith? A challenging piece--complete with a miracle or two--for both the actors and the audience.

  • George Sapio: Amongst the Stars

    Rachel leads you down the path from one scenario, then underneath it, then even deeper. How far can love go? Apparently farther than you can imagine. A lovely, poignant piece and a beautiful dance for two actors.
