A hallmark of Lynn's work is highlighting family dysfunction in all its glorious humor. Arguably, "A Good Man" reveals more about the mother (a wonderful character for a middle-aged actor) whose obtuse view of her family brings both laughs and tears. A small cast and easy production values makes this a solid pick.

In the age of carefully controlled public narratives and high-profile political downfalls, this gem of a play really hits the target. It's everything that's funny about forced and contrived press conferences - only set at a family's Thanksgiving dinner. What a fun play."

A traditional folktale with quippy, contemporary language makes this a play children and young adults will love. Latham is brilliant with lyrical word play (read her adult plays). I especially liked the potential for high-theatricality this play offers. It's a design team's dream, which is another characteristic of Latham's work. I even found myself wondering if this play could be staged with puppets, which I know next to nothing about. Lovely play!

This was such a fun, enjoyable introduction to radio plays for me. I would love to hear this as it was meant to be produced - coming across the airwaves on some cold, dark Halloween night. Burdick does a great job of setting the creepy mood and tone and painting a picture in the mind's eye of gloom and despair - all in wonderful, eerie detail. I was most intrigued with the classic fairy tale witch set in the modern setting of a tattoo parlor. A delightfully disturbing ending, too!

How horribly and humorously wrong can it go when husband and wife have jobs in direct philosophical conflict with one another? Faced with an onslaught of challenges from outside their marriage - from a creepy neighbor to a murderous co-worker to the evil empire of Monsanto - these two weather it all with humor but not a whole lot of grace. I particularly liked how Lynn designed all the roles to be played by two actors. A very funny play with light, snappy dialogue that shows Lynn’s comedic skill at its best.

A big family drama in compact form, this 21st century story rightly accepts the new domestic order as the new normal and focuses more on the traditional familial challenges - love, marriage, and children. There's plenty of tension in this play that is wonderfully punctured by humor at all the right times. Very real people in very real circumstances delightfully written in Philip Middleton Williams' signature style that adeptly probes and illuminates intimate relationships - especially between parent and child. A lovely play that's easy to produce.

Actors will embrace this Pinter-esque play. I particularly liked how some of the lines, heavily laden with meaning, were vastly interpretable depending on whether it was the before or after rendering. Wonderful, stark, stilted, stylized dialogue, too. This play is unlike Lynn's other works and really shows his versatility as a writer.

This play is a microcosm of political and ethical angst manifesting among a tight community of diverse inhabitants with divergent but defendable points of view. There is no easy way out of this story, which makes for some heart wrenching theatre. Wyndham weaves a story of impossible choices. Every action leads to a ripple effect of devastating consequences for someone else. I’ve never seen these characters before, nor would I have ever imagined them in this wonderfully refreshing combination. Multi-media approaches to production will really bring out the fantastic theatrical potential of this play. Highly recommended!

High stakes, clear objectives, natural dialogue, and social relevance gives this monologue for young actors something wonderfully tangible to work with. Great audition piece.

This is a tongue-in-cheek rendering of all our collective experiences buying everyday items in a post-911/post meth kitchen world. Really gets at the absurdity of misplaced security and misguided policy. Quick paced with fun dialogue and larger-than-life characters.
