    Ethics vs legality makes great drama and Marjorie Bicknell has created one that grabs you and takes you on a
    messy, authentic, and riveting ride--no nicely tied up answers here, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be. Perfect for festivals and colleges alike. So very good!

    Oh my goodness I want to be all of these women when I grow up! Kathryn de la Rosa has created beautiful authentic characters in Sam, Marina and Jesse who navigate discovering their racial, sexual and religious identities in a piece of theatre that actresses will love. It's hysterically funny and poignant and passionate and should be produced as soon as possible.

    For many many reasons, Anna Coleman Ladd has long been one of my heroes so I was excited beyond belief to come across this marvelous play! McClain has taken this powerhouse of a woman and told her story with poetry, empathy, and realism that brings Ladd and her greatest acheivement to stunning life.

    We've all lived through Roommate Hell, but not like this! Celia and Monica are each powerhouse females in their own right, and just two of the fantastic characters that Brian Maticic has created. The payoff is one of my favorite parts of and the darkly comic undertones make this play truly shine!

    Fabulous! Brian Maticic has a talent for dark comedy, and it shows! Trent, Olivia, and Owen are fantastic and quirky characters that actors will love to explore (Trent is undoubtedly my favorite); and Theresa, Randy, and Mom add wonderful flavor. The comic twists and turns(especially the dark ones) are masterfully done. Give this play a read and then put it on it's feet--audiences will love it!!!!

    I'm always excited to read Melissa Leilani Larson's work no matter what phase it's in. While I do understand this work is still in "early draft" mode, this play is one I'd love to see live whenever it's ready. Larson has created an amazing character in Lark and her quest for identity kept me riveted. This is the type of story we need more of, especially now, and I applaud Mel for telling it!

    A manga fairy tale all done in rhyme! Complete with epic fights, fun dialogue and the perfect amount of comedy added for flavor. A must read, a must see, and a must produce!

    You think you know what happened to Ophelia...and then Harrison Bryan throws a curve ball that leaves you breathless with shock and giggles of dark humor! A great entry for any theatre festival and a fun piece for theatre artists to show off their acting chops!
  • Nimue of the Lake
    11 May. 2021
    As an avid fan of all thing Arthurian, I'm so happy to have found this play! Nimue is a fantastic character that any actress would love, and Arthur and Merlin have been reincarnated in a fresh and new way. Put this play on it's feet--it's perfect for any theatre season. Also, sword fights and magic!
