Loved reading this. What an excellent monologue of self affirmation. Definitely would make an excellent performance piece. Highly recommended!

The dialogue is just terrific and tremendously funny. The usual send-up of rich fools. And THEN we get to the genre of it all, and that's also thrilling. The play builds to a suitable crescendo, and I loved the fact that I was laughing all the way to the horrific end. An excellent werewolf play. (I would say something about it being howlingly funny, but well, I'd like to think I'm better than that. But probably not.)

Kerouac mixed with the "Twilight Zone", absolutely achieving an eerie effect. Loved the technique used with the characters and dialogue; intriguing and disconcerting at the same time. This is one certainly ungroovy road trip that leaves the reader/viewer as unsettled as our day trippers seem to be. Haunting stuff!

I loved this. Some terrific dialogue and pointed commentary about a great many things. A lot to pack into a ten minute, perhaps, but Heyman does a bang-up job of it. I'm left contemplating the concept of "sexy is the new scary," and it's wonderful when a play leaves me with points to ponder such as that. Beyond that, these two characters are an absolute hoot to spend some time with. An excellent ten minute!

A great monologue for the actor who plays Joanne. And whoa, was I not prepared for the ending of this. Donley does a great job taking you down one path and then quickly veering into another. There's a lot in this piece that's going to stick with me for a while. Impactful.

"Be careful what you wish for," as the saying goes, but I wasn't quite prepared for the emotional impact of this particular interpretation of the old yarn about the primate's appendage. As usual, there's the excellent dialogue that you see in a Williams piece, and I always enjoy encountering the allusions and references that pepper his work. The ending was just pitch perfect. Great piece by PMW for spooky season and beyond.

Terrifically terrifying as the dread gets to build on its own and we get to know and enjoy these characters before... well, dear reader/viewer, you'll see what happens. An excellent little horror/sci-fi that sets the mood effectively and should scare audiences of many types.

I LOVE stories like this; and it grabs your attention and doesn't let go. Rich, distinct characters that play well off each other and blend into a complex collage that is truly engaging. There's also a great variety of technique that allows you as an audience member to be lead a different way and then, BAM, Gearhart will get you right in the gut after the "rope-a-dope." (Sorry for the metaphors, but it's that type of play!) An absolute knockout. This needs to be staged!

It's a classic horror setup, to be sure, but Cole takes it to new heights here by letting most of the dread and terror build up in your own mind. After that, a powerhouse crescendo ending that will definitely stick with you... in those dark hours of the night... and hopefully those cracked dolls aren't staring... at you. Spooky stuff!

Incredibly fun piece that had this admitted sci-fi geek grinning from ear to ear at all the references. And the comedy is just great as well in terms of the good-natured takedown of all this ridiculous stuff (that, again admittedly, many of us love beyond measure). Even those who don't know their Wookies from their Klingons will have a lot of fun watching this piece. Highly encourage any ten-minute festival to put it on the bill to beam their audiences up into pure hilarity.
