    Mark Henry Levine does it again. A laugh out loud fest you would love to see performed.

    Michele Clarke creates a strong character in a quick monologue. What's in a name, indeed?

  • James Binz: FAMILY BY NUMBERS Award-winning 10-minute drama by Arianna Rose
    “

    A modified LaRonde in 10 minutes, with beautiful characters and that strong Arianna Rose dialogue. A model of what the 10 minute play should be. Very well done!

  • James Binz: Return to Sender by Veronica Chaparro-Maillet
    “

    OK Vee. A short 2 hander with the weirdest of stories. The dialogue is excellent, both characters find the conflicting tone and the story runs with almost farcical pace. Chaparro-Maillet has captured a nice chunk of weird reality - she has a wonderful way of telling the tale. Brava! 10/18/2024

  • James Binz: One Night Rescue by Anastasia Wild
    “

    Could become a meet-cute but I think what we see is better and more unique. The story is a typical one with some twist tossed in for flavor. These are excellent flawed characters in a situation that could go any number of directions. Anastasia Wild does a Cinderella re-mix with Me Too movement implications and finishes with a flourish. The changing emotions will be difficult for an actor to master, but well worth the pay off. Nice. 10/18/2024

  • James Binz: Most Outstanding Minority Girl by Kelly McBurnette-Andronicos
    “

    Challenging story. This well written piece illustrates the folly of not being serious about DEI. This happens all over the US these days and in many different areas. Without input from gender, ethnic, disabled, etc. peoples - we get a well intentioned, but well off the mark situation. Dark Comedy and twisty significance. Brava. 10/18/2024

  • James Binz: You Went There by John Busser
    “

    Funny short piece. John Busser places two conflicting characters in a typical location and lets the naughty begin. This couple is ready to play and the dialogue is hot and hilarious.It takes a moment to get both on the same page - but they arrive there with a super plan of action. Does anyone actually remember their anniversary of ? 10/18/2024

  • James Binz: The Waiting Room by Alli Hartley-Kong
    “

    Difficult subject for sure. The characters clash and then meld and the ending is very satisfying. Allie Hartley-Kong creates the conflict in a visual and audio way and let's the protagonists battle it out. Nicely done and a worthy piece to see on stage! 10/18/2024

    Yikes! A reminder all too well of the pandemic. Dana Hall presents another slice of life reality that brings us back once more to those terrible days. Dark comedy indeed.

  • James Binz: A Play of Angelic Visitation by R. W. Schneider
    “

    Interesting concept. The story line is strong and carries some good fantasy and satire elements. The characters are well written with dialogue both comic and serious. Good beginning, middle and ending. This would be fun to see staged.
