  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: 60-SECOND UNIVERSES (A 1-MINUTE APPRECIATION)

    Α short piece evoking intense emotions! With dense language, the author creates a sense of emotion and nostalgia, a bittersweet feeling for the time that has passed, yet also the joy of creation for what is now beginning. Touching and hopeful.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: You're Late (a one minute play)

    A satirical allegory about the passage of time, delightfully structured. It makes you wonder how you reached the end of the play and the passage of time itself.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: Samson

    Ken Love crafts a short but powerful one-act play that conveys feelings of betrayal and loss, based on the biblical story. It's a symbolic and intense, well-written theatrical vignette.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: ARTIST'S MIDNIGHT CRISIS - Monologue

    It is the confession of an artist struggling with creative block. He stands before the dilemma: do I belong to the expectations of others or to my own truth? Tom Erb opens a window into Theo’s mind and invites us to witness his drama. It's a contemplative work, and through raising questions, it finally illuminates the true essence of art.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: Moment Before Impact

    Ruben Carbajal pens a hyper-condensed play where, in just two pages and with carefully chosen words, we get the unfolding of two lives. It's full of tragedy (softened by dark humor). Surprisingly, in just one minute, it creates a wide range of emotions. Highly recommended!

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: KYRA: A MONOLOGUE

    A powerful short play. In just three pages, Asher Wyndham crafts a deeply moving portrait of a mother who absorbs every blow and stands as a safe harbor for her child. Tender, multi-layered, highly recommended!

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: This Person DID Exist (A darker companion piece to Steve of Absence)

    The main idea of this play is highly inventive. The end remains open to interpretations, so Busser invites the reader/audience to be co-creators. And of course, it opens up a wide field for thought.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: Three Husbands (Monologue)

    Paul Donnelly disarms us right from the start with charm and humor, then gradually shifts the ground beneath us, leaving us profoundly touched by the end. Almost imperceptibly, we move from humor to trauma. Humorous and layered.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: The Last Laugh

    Dan West constructs a dark comedy with existential depth. As I read it, my emotions shifted from awkwardness to sadness to disgust. At its core, the play portrays Tickles (even the name functions tragically) not only as a perpetrator of violence but also as a symptom of society's indifference and detachment.

  • Georgia Xanthopoulou: The Psychopomp

    It's a play that addresses a difficult subject with great sensitivity, featuring a "woman in white" onto whom the heroine projects her own life and a different kind of psychopomp who guides her toward life. A tribute to friendship and life.
