- It Wants to Kill Me by7 May. 2019“ A dark, gripping, wonderfully creepy play about fear, that had me at the edge of my seat. This would be so powerful in a public space (which is how it's intended to be performed) and has loads to say about contemporary life without saying any of it directly, which is the genius of it. I'd love to see this play performed. ”
- Blood Sisters (15-20 min.) by4 May. 2019“ I was fortunate to see this play in Detroit a few years ago and it was so gripping. Rice really gets inside these women and shows us their super-high-stakes situation with humor and compassion. Loved it! ”
- No Limits by3 May. 2019“ I love this 3F short play about obstacles, hope and inspiration. Lovely and moving, a perfect addition to any short play festival. ”
- One is the Road by3 May. 2019“ This unique short play is wonderfully inventive and theatrical, and so emotionally devastating. I finished it and immediately wanted to re-read it, even though I knew what was coming. Terrific! ”
- I'LL LOVE YOU 'TIL THE COWS COME HOME by3 May. 2019“ Compassionate and shattering play about the horrors of dementia. Utterly gripping and so powerful. ”
- The Word by29 Apr. 2019“ Perfect gem of a one-minute play. Beautiful. ”
- SATISFACTION GUARANTEED by29 Apr. 2019“ Wonderfully, darkly absurdist, with an increasingly moving emotional core, this play completely nails the impersonality of today's consumerist world even though it's set in the future. Would love to see this performed. ”
- Stain by29 Apr. 2019“ A terrific and searingly funny play with lots of marvelous twists and turns. Loved it! ”
- The Orchid by28 Apr. 2019“ A beautiful and important play about attempted suicide and how painful it is to talk about, but how necessary it is to talk. Hageman has such a gift for getting under the surface of her characters and showing us all the things they wish they could say but can't--just like real life. And the fact that these two characters are teens makes this play feel even more vital and essential. I'm in awe of this playwright's talent. ”
