  • Sean Gref: The Edge of Play (10 minute version)

    This youthful play does a great job of showing how it's okay to need help sometimes. It portrays the theme of anxiety through the lens of a child in a way that both nurtures acceptance and gives those kids struggling with it tools to manage it. Janine Sobeck Knighton crafted an imaginative, fun world with which they bring light to an otherwise scary place.

  • Sean Gref: During/After

    What an incredible way to tell this story. Wendy Vogel paints a world with such unique artistry in a way that captures both intense tragedy and yet hope. During/After gives a unique perspective on how intertwined our lives can be. Keep reading; there's more to it than it seems. The conclusion was perfectly satisfying.

  • Sean Gref: A Bad Play

    A bad play? I'm not sure to say no or yes. I laughed out loud and began to see my grim future at the same time. Brian Cern has clearly been through it and knows how to wright a playwright's play. The Artistic Director is every playwright's nightmare. Let's hope we may all be a little like Sam and believe in ourselves as much as they do. A fun, silly, play to feel the lovely comradery of theatre.

  • Sean Gref: The Shittiest Play

    Not sure what I expected, but this play is exactly as it sounds -- in a good way.

  • Sean Gref: The Ambassador; or: the Disarmament of Nuclear Weapons

    What do two men do when they're in a room, trying to make important decisions? They distract themselves, they disagree, and they get hungry. Ricardo Soltero-Brown humanizes such a removed and impossible problem as the disarmament of nuclear weapons in a way that you can't help but laugh about. The physical comedy intertwined with hilarious dialog and plot movement balances the high-tensioned setting with levity. ... and a touch of mayo.

  • Sean Gref: IT'S DEAD IN HERE ON TUESDAYS

    Wow, what a journey! The characters feel very interesting with their own unique voices and senses. Brent Alles's well-paced story brings you into this little bar slowly and calmly at first, and then rockets into what could otherwise be a messy twist, and finally parachutes down into a wholesome conclusion. I would love to see this produced, and each character gives their actor an entertaining role.

  • Sean Gref: How About Them Dodgers

    The way this story winds itself through subtle - and not so subtle - jabs at society is constantly unexpected and hilarious! Philip Middleton Williams shows us this shady deal which ends up being the last thing you'd expect. A satire, yet a realistic portrayal of the near future (depending on certain events). Left me on the edge of my seat at every turn!

  • Sean Gref: Rats are Racist

    Some very important topics around gender-identity and society are discussed and portrayed in this piece. James Perry tackles the tough conversations with wit and sincerity, not bombarding you with a strongly stated opinion, but shown through a series of connected vignettes of sort. The dialogue flows and feels realistic, and the characters are all grounded. A simple staging allows any company to produce this powerful play.
