  • Frida Sofia Is Not Dead by Pauline David-Sax
    21 Dec. 2020
    “ A dark look at the news using the Cassandra myth. A really cleverly crafted short that explores the conflict of entertainment over morality. A great read. ”
  • 19 Excellent Reasons to Date Matthew Weaver (a monologue) by Matthew Weaver
    6 Dec. 2020
    “ This play is so charming. I'm a bit smitten. It's such an interesting and honest, quietly funny and lonely monologue. It would be interesting for a female performer but any gender really. The piece leaves a lot there for the director to explore, expand and the actor to develop - even if they took it really dark too. I can see it working for Zoom particularly well. ”
  • JOY by Andrew Allen

    “ Full disclosure I co-run a theatre company with this chap and have produced this short.
    This play is a fantastic comedy that actors can have fun with and explores the notion of a joke gone wrong and the professional consequences. Lots of humour and very clever. ”
  • AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION, A Play for Videoconference by Rachael Carnes
    4 Dec. 2020
    “ A great piece for zoom and a window into the absurd. Rachael’s piece gives space to breathe and gives the director & actors freedom to play. Certainly a fun one for these strange times! ”
