  • George Sapio: Kangaroo (Ten Minute)

    Coming to grips with the idea that the relationship might not work is a complex and difficult situation, and Paul Donnelly sets out the crisis naturally and beautifully. We don't all get magic endings and life does get painful and difficult, as Lily fears it might. But having a staunch friend in your corner goes a long way to helping navigate. A great play for two!

  • George Sapio: Come on, ref!

    I very much like this play. It's true, warm, and would make an excellent addition to any evening of short work. Bram catches the pathos but concentrates on the humanity and we come out of this thinking things might just actually turn out all right. I hope this gets loads of productions.

  • This mono opens a crate full of reactions. There is so much emotion, heartache--reality--packed into this short piece. I wanted this to go on for pages, but the way it is now makes you wonder, think, sympathize with both the narrator and the teenager. A beautiful, honest call for love.

  • George Sapio: The Fist of Branding

    Umm. Wow. Just. Wow. Fit for a select audience or best for most unsuspecting crowds. I literally howled at this one. Hilarious, embarrassing (it hurts to just observe, really), and not a wasted word or gag anywhere. Not to mention tons of fun for the costume designer.

  • George Sapio: Second Thoughts

    Just wondering how many times in "real life" this has happened. Because it's not impossible in the least. Mr. LeBlanc has captured a tragic situation and mined it for every ounce of hilarity and absurdity available. A beautiful piece for two game actors eager to bounce off each other. Rings with a sad truth, as well, and that what makes the comedy so sharp.

  • George Sapio: Getting to Know You

    An excellent 2-hander for a night of gay-friendly work. Two real characters, each smartly drawn, working out crossed signals. Could it be a wretched beginning to something more, or is it a one-time mistake? Excellent script for two strong actors.

  • George Sapio: For a Man Your Age

    The Pump and Grind Coffee Shop. Just gonna leave that here. Love both characters here, so natural, so honest (and how often does *that* happen*?) and so naturally gifted with sparkling wit. And yet...the truth about aging is not funny at all. Rage, rage...yes, but be prepared for reality. A wonderful 2-hander for men of a certain age.

  • George Sapio: Let Them Eat Cake (from the THE WRINKLE RANCH AND OTHER PLAYS ABOUT GROWING OLD collection)

    A beautiful moment; touching, bittersweet, and shows the power of enduring love.

  • George Sapio: Storm in a Teacup (from the THE WRINKLE RANCH AND OTHER PLAYS ABOUT GROWING OLD collection)

    Once again, Ms. Cole gives us an endearing and fun comedy--a joy for two actors to bounce back and forth--and ends with an unpredictable but beautiful moment. Well done!

  • George Sapio: Divine Truth

    A question of faith; should one follow a text without question, or one's own instincts and desires? And what happens when physical ailments come into play? Deb Cole raises these questions effectively and judiciously, examining a family's time of crisis when every family member must decide which path to follow. A superb drama for engaged audiences.
