This would be an excellent piece for dancers who want to get into acting. Movement is essential, but in the dialogue there's a powerful story about personal agency existing alongside the need for mutual embrace with the realities of the world (or universe), and that there is a place for us all within it.

A love letter to all of us fellow playwrights who submit our work every chance we get, and what happens when things do (and don't) go our way.

This is a funny little play - great for a high school drama club that's not afraid to go a bit dark, and make a little fun of their parents (who were likely visiting McDonalds when the play is set).

A refreshingly human take on the divine Theus, the immortal, isn't omnipotent and emotionally distant, but very much affected by the world's self-destruction, its slow resurrection, and haunted by the memories of all he could and couldn't do to stop it. Full of striking visual imagery, overlapping narratives, and careful to avoid any specific theology, this is something a bit different from the usual post-apocalypse genre.

Great piece about navigating life and making space for your needs in long-term relationships, and about rekindling a romantic fire that you think has gone out.

This play packs a lot into 10 minutes - several decades, in fact. All of it is laced together by Marcel, an enigmatic waiter with an unflappable creative flair. Fast-paced, refreshing, and positive, but still with meaningful depth.

A new twist on the Rom-Com for the age of AI. I wonder how long it will be before this turns from fiction to reality. Maybe this is a prophecy of things to come.

A touching story about a murder... of crows... and by extension the social bonds we forge between us, sometimes without even realizing it, and how helping each other out doesn't always have to come with the expectation of a reward in return.

This is a succinct-yet-moving little play, a conversation between two characters that are essentially the same character. It's a bold choice, and it could have backfired, but it really works. The plot is also well-grounded - the playwright has clearly done his homework, skillfully employing research to provide a level of authenticity not always found in a 10-minute play.

An excellent treatment of the process of grief and family estrangement. This play manages to convey a lot of intensity without a single actor ever raising their voice. It's subtle, yet dramatic. Well done!
