  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: 2 Bdrm 1 Bath

    It’s a so funny and humorous play about the compromises, the flexibility (literally and metaphorically) and the effective communication required when sharing one bathroom home. Or, in other words, how shared space turns into a shared life. Delightful!

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: Urashima Taro

    Morey Norkin rereads Japanese folklore and crafts a play that encourages a dialogue between Japanese tradition and modern theatre. A beautifully written, myth-conscious theatrical work.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: Never Again - 1 Minute Play

    This play reminds us of the importance of embodiment. With tremendous economy of words, Ryan Kaminski crafts an atmospheric and mysterious play. The tension is built through the suspense and silence, showing that what is implied carries more meaning than what is articulated.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: Down in the Earth (With Mud and All the Worms)

    It's a comic, philosophical, and dark play at the same time. The split self and the discussion between body and soul are highly original. The dialogues are gripping. Where is Heaven? Dan West writes with great craftsmanship a play about "natural process" after all that takes place Down in the Earth. I loved it.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: A Second Chance to Say Goodbye

    It's a beautifully written play with a totally unexpected twist that makes it even more dramatic and tragic at the same time. While reading it, I keep wondering who might have needed the connection more. Haunting piece of work!

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: THE BEAUTY OF A ROSE

    It's a thought-provoking dialogue, not just about a supercomputer, but about the belief that logic must be prioritised over emotion. But is logic sufficient to provide answers for all the great questions? Should individuals surrender decision-making to a supercomputer? In that context, is there still a place for emotions and beauty? Thankfully, we can enjoy the beauty of a rose, and many thanks to Jack Levine for reminding us of that truth. A reflective play about technology and humanity.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: Art Duty

    Do yourself a favor and read this play! Daniel Prillaman masterfully poses philosophical questions under the guise of absurdity, and these dialogues that blend humor with desperation. It's funny and, at the same time, it's sharp to its core. I read three times Critic's 1 monologue. Hilarious!

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: FLOATING BUBBLES

    While I was reading the play, I imagined Dick and Jane sitting on the long bench each in their own bubble. Two people who share the same neighborhood, the same therapist, the same inability to swim begin to approach each other. And suddenly their bubbles burst! Jack Levine pens a funny and tender play about the “floating” and invisible bubbles!

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: A GUST OF WIND (a two minute monologue)

    It is surprising how this short play evokes so many emotions. The loss gives rise to grief, relief, acceptance, guilt, agony, uncertainty, and all of them are remarkably blended as life itself. A beautifully written monologue.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: It's Really Very Simple

    It’s Really Very Simple is the definition of meta theatrical play. Jack Levine generously offers an insight of his writing thoughts. He brings to life the two creatures and permits us to be part of his imaginary world. The most important to me is that he “breaks the system” showing that there is no need for dilemma, there is no need for conflict to build a well written play. A beautiful surprise!
