  • Ian Donley: HOLD ONTO YOUR HATS

    A creepy and poetic play. The uncertainty creeps into you until you reach the ending. A brilliant way to build suspense.

  • Ian Donley: Clown Lung

    A wacky, absurdist adventure on discovering where one fits in the world. This fast-paced story delivers in its pursuit to inspire others to become their own jellyfish in their lives.

  • Ian Donley: 19 Words (a monologue)

    We've all been there and felt that. The order Matthew Weaver chooses to place his 19 words are affective and passionate.

  • Ian Donley: The Catastrophist

    As a fan of Lauren Gunderson, the thing that stands out about her to me is her ability to transport you into the world of her characters. She takes human truths and presents them on a silver platter for us to enjoy. Her use of language connects her characters to the themes she's exploring (in this case, to the idea that we don't know how the future will unfold, and it's wise to keep yourself grounded through your upbringing and morality.

  • Ian Donley: 80 Cards

    I love the simplicity of it! It gives the actor and opportunity to let the words do the work for them. Would love to perform this.

  • Ian Donley: 10%

    Emily Hageman writes this character in typical teenage fashion, but not over the top. The character is grounded and fully-realized.

  • Ian Donley: Intervals

    The dialogue is raw, particularly with Lanie's story. These three characters brings authenticity to a taboo subject. The characters aren't putting on a show. JM Chambers makes these characters three dimensional to the point where reading the script felt like I heard their voices speak to me.

  • Ian Donley: A Doll for my Daughter

    Reading the premise itself was haunting. Reading the script was grounding. Given how recent the tragedy at Robb Elementary was, this piece serves as a kind gesture for all the lives we've lost.
