  • Josh Gauthier: Dee, 20 by Randy Hunt
    “

    With a clear appreciation for D&D alongside a blend of comedy and a close group of friends with a slightly chaotic streak, Dee, 20 is a fun a quick romp through a fantasy world and the very real bonding of four friends discovering a shared hobby--despite some initial hesitation from our title character.

    A funny and bittersweet story that takes the dire challenges of a new marriage to a literal extreme. Touching and entertaining in equal measure with a great deal of emotion packed into a short run-time.

  • Josh Gauthier: Pinkie & Sheila by Randy Hunt
    “

    A wildly fun comedy of situational and physical comic absurdity--but at the heart, a married couple fighting for the understanding and connection needed to save their relationship. A delight of a short play.

  • Josh Gauthier: Fallout or a Ballad of Peace and David Hasselhoff by Robert J. LeBlanc
    “

    A powerful trip through history and generations trying to make sense of generations who saw the promised future give way to an uncertain present. A play of huge scope and intimate presentation that speaks resoundingly to the current state of the world.

    A very fun, quick piece that balances engaging characters and an intimate relationship with twists and surprises enough to pull the reader to unexpected but always entertaining places.

    “

    The very definition of "that escalated quickly" packing a whole lot of crime and consequence into the span of a relatively short Zumba class populated with highly enthusiastic students.

    A funny historical spoof rife with flawed bureaucracy and HOA nonsense in the face of looming disaster.
