  • Debra A. Cole: On a Roll! by Nora Louise Syran
    “

    What a beautiful and tender moment between a parent and teenager. Growing up is tough, any having the courage to learn new things can be even tougher. This simple two-hander is anything but simple. It's layered. It's natural. It's lovely.

  • Debra A. Cole: The Remarkably Unremarkable Crucifixion of Emma Reynolds by Daniel Prillaman
    “

    Holy cow... what short play/monologue. DANIEL PRILLAMAN has written something that will haunt audiences for some time after experiencing it. Working with teens, I recognize the feelings of Emma and the plight she cannot escape. PRILLAMAN creates a world that defies logic, time, and consequences. Absolutely superb.

    What wonderful friends. Graduation brings joy, elation, and sometimes.... worry. This sweet coming of age short play would be a gift to any high school actresses looking to show their stuff.

  • Debra A. Cole: But This Is Us From Here by Christian St. Croix
    “

    What an absolute beautiful telling of a mother and son trying to find new common ground after years of separation. CHRISTIAN ST. CROIX has given two authentic and raw voices to characters who give us real hope for redemption. In addition to thoughtful dialogue, it's the quiet moments without words that say so much in this wonderful short play.

    Girl... I get it. You get to a certain age as a women, and you have... needs. Needs that only can be met with a summer fling. WHAT A FABULOUS monologue for a woman of "certain age" to bring to life on stage. Hilarious.

    I want to be clear and honest right out of the gate. I adore ANYTHING written by Scott Sickles, and THERE’S NOTHING TO SEE HERE
    SO JUST MOVE ALONG ALREADY! is no exception. The characters: clear and charming. The dialogue: sharp and witty. The pacing: perfection. This two-handed MUST be produced. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.
