  • Debra A. Cole: One Thing in Common by Anj Marie Riffel
    “

    ANJ MARIE RIFFEL has written the ultimate tit for tat short play. Can strangers find a common thread that connects their humanity... and humor? This would be a blast for two seasoned actors.

    You gotta give it to Billy, he doesn't give up. I love MOREY NORKIN's approach to this unique title prompt. Creative brains like Norkin's come up with the most creative work... and origami creatures.

  • Debra A. Cole: FROG AND HERON ARE — FRIENDS? (FIVE-MINUTE PLAY) by Adam Richter
    “

    ADAM RICHTER has written a new parable for a modern world - a world full of anger and hate. If the heron can change after causing such death and destruction, maybe there's hope for all of us. SOMEBODY PRODUCE THIS!!!! It is a true gift.

    Leave it to JOHN BUSSER to write the perfect short play called 37 ORIGAMI BEES. THIS IS PRICELESS! I think these three characters are going to live a complicated but hilarious life together.

  • Debra A. Cole: ROUGH AND GLOSSY by Jaxson Mackling
    “

    I think Alan is on to something... JAXSON MACKLING explores what makes relationships tick... and blow up. Just when we think it's the other person's fault, we are forced to look deeper at ourselves and our part in the trauma. Actors will have fun bringing these two opposites to life.

    Wonderful. I have to admit, I found myself making my own incorrect judgments and felt a little shame for my biases at the end of this thoughtful short play by BRIAN CERN. Audiences will feel the same powerful emotions when seeing it too. THAT is what theatre is all about - making audiences think.

  • Debra A. Cole: OLD UNCLE by James Binz
    “

    JAMES BINZ has written a monologue that actors will relish brining to life... all the pain... all the rage... all the dedication to the task at hand. Powerful monologues for older, seasoned actors are few and far between, but this will be a new classic for those who enjoy depth and power.

    I am a puddle. RYAN VAUGHAN has written a powerful and raw short play about love, procrastination, and grief... overwhelming grief. Audiences will be better humans for experiencing this beautiful piece of theatre.
