  • James Binz: Five Miles Long, Two Hundred Feet High

    As a fellow height hater - I can relate to the fear, and as a vet, I know how to put the fear inside of itself and move forward. This short piece covered all the bases and the characters were very true to life. I loved the dialogue which I'm certain is a delight to hear live and the story line was strong. I will be reading more of Maripat Allen - she's the real deal. Brava!

  • James Binz: The Uninvited

    A powerful monologue with deep insight and rawness. a heartbreaker for sure, but filled with some hope in the end. A strong senior actor would chew the drapes with this one. Nicely done!

  • James Binz: Park Benches

    A lovely duet about a difficult topic. The dialogue is crisp and simple, perfect small set and excellent story line. Agnes is a unique character in the pantheon of two handers. Well designed and well written - brava!

  • James Binz: The Play of Excessive Exposition, Stereotypical Characters, and Cliches

    Ha ha. This is a very funny conceit. Radtke keeps it moving and does the regular reveal of important facts in a most entertaining way. 3 hands and away we go! Brava!

  • James Binz: Consumer Confidence

    An unexpected delight! What should be an awkward conversation between a senior woman and a young man is hilariously played out. Great story idea and wonderful characters. I smiled the whole way! Brava, Susan, Brava!

  • James Binz: Heart Broker

    Hilarious! I never saw it coming! Very well written, tight dialogue and a really funny story. Easy to stage and it would be fun to perform. Brava!

  • James Binz: A BLAST FROM THE PAST

    Lovely tale for some senior actors. Well written and an awesome story line. I think this would be terrific on stage! A very charming piece.

  • James Binz: Pivot

    So many times in life, we look at our choices, decide that we did everything right and then wonder how it all got so bad. Alex Lubuscher has defined this phenomenon in a wonderful story with spectacular dialogue and powerful scenes. There is a sprinkling of humor and absurdity - just enough to flavor the goulash to a delightful stew. Reminded me of Tracy Letts. Brava.

  • James Binz: Sacrifice

    That was...odd? Very funny take on a horror classic situation. Nice twist in the end. This will be a great bit of fun on stage somewhere. Terrific and natural dialogue with a great story. Brava!
