  • Debra A. Cole: 101 CLICHES by Jack Levine
    “

    DELIGHTFUL! Jack Levine takes a prompt about idioms and cliches and uses all of them to create a fast paced and charming two-hander. Perhaps "all that glitters IS gold" when in the capable hands of Jack.

  • Debra A. Cole: THE LUCKY CHOICE by Jack Levine

    The entire time I was enjoying this ridiculously fun piece by JACK LEVINE, I kept thinking of Willy Wonka. Clocks without hands. Plaques without words. JACK masterly takes us through a department store interaction that would drive the sanest person NUTS! A director and seasoned actors would have a blast bringing this to life.

  • Debra A. Cole: The Legend of The Harper Valley PTA by Rachel Feeny-Williams

    I love the song this was based on, and I LOVED this short play by RACHEL FEENY-WILLIAMS. Oh, small town gossip is the BEST gossip, and the members of the Harper Valley PTA just opened the gates of information. What a beautiful nod to a song and a time-period many of us remember and cherish.

    Chilling. This one minute on stage will have audiences talking, guessing, and wondering what is next.

  • Debra A. Cole: Rusty Old Wrench by Sylvia Luehr
    “

    As a creator, someone "organizing my stuff" would be a lovely gesture, but it would make me crazy. I get it. It was Derek's commitment to solving the issue that saved the day for me...and my guess... for Kris. SYLVIA LUEHR has given an audience a small look into the world, or shed in this case, of Kris and her complicated past. Sometimes it's an old wrench. Sometimes it's a beautiful memory.

    What a fabulous visual an old west train car story would make on a stage. The Kid is a fabulous character with depth and texture. Natty is a wonderful surprise. Audiences will enjoy their time with these characters, in this space, at this moment.

    Is it okay to agree with both of these characters as they navigate this new client? This short piece by PAUL DONNELLY will have audiences debating all he way home. Wonderful.

    WOW! What a fantastic piece for a seasoned, female presenting actress. So many painful and triggering moments in the tragic life of this couple. WENDY VOGEL has created a monologue that has rich texture, a fabulous build, and an ending that is poetic.

    Hehehehehehehe... I'm not sure Bertz is engaged either. Was it a grand gesture at karaoke or just lyrics performed with enthusiasm? Either way, I'd pay to watch Milo show up as the best man. FABULOUS!

    Owen's voice is straight out of a classic film noir movie. VIVIAN LERMOND has given us a moment of character, flavor, and a little spice.
