A perfectly twisty encore meet cute. Levine sees the what if options and nails another terrific short piece. Brava

Nifty plot with a great twist in the end. Light humor and the dialogue is very realistic. Having been through "right-sizing" myself, I would have liked being escorted by this security guard. This would be fun to watch onstage. Bravo!

Powerful monologue with a veteran character wounded in action taking on the scientific testing of her new prosthesis. Lot's of unpacking here, the plotline moves nicely to the ending and the character has a unique monologue with military language and science mixed in for authenticity. Idunn moves from pure experimentation to slice of life and we hope she plays with style. Great monologue piece. Well written.

What a wonderful and thoughtful slice of life. Just the right touch of politics and comedy and a nice deep emotional connection. Abby Uphoff sets up a plot that slides through the life of a young woman and a young girl and connects us all to the challenges therein. Nicely written and a nifty piece for performance, too.

Really funny business. This short piece is a really unique and terrific premise idea.

Funny monologues for 50+ actors are hard to find - this one is juicy and sweet and hits the mark. A typical Lucy Wang masterwork that would be a hoot to see performed.

Old school chums find each other years later and maneuver their way to an eventual meet cute. Well crafted tale with the inevitable twist at the end. Brava

Illustrating this kind of loss can be an exercise in bad writing. Lindsay Kennedy shows that this is not always the case. The slow unfolding of the tale is masterful and the dialogue between the characters is true to life and poignant. A difficult event well told.

Loved that Nikki move at the end. Slice of life characters in an absolutely absurd situation makes for a sweet romantic comedy. Nicely done.

Excellent ghost story. Enid Cokinos gently glides us through the pain and to the glory. So well written with dialogue that works and a conceit of a ghost that brings it all together. Well done.
