Reviews/Recommendations
"If this wasn't too REAL.... I would be laughing! CRAIG HOUK nails what it can be like for a playwright just trying to find an audience these days. SHARP - WITTY - TERRIFYING - This monologue is absolutely priceless... actually... there is a submission fee... so forget that last compliment. CRAIG HOUK - you nailed it!"
"Craig had me at "At least, we hope she’s napping." A perfectly named theater company lays down it's submission ground rules which sound unsettlingly documentaric (not a word, I know, but Craig brings out the creative in me) in it's realistic absurdity. A guaranteed laugh-getter from both theater audiences and definitely from playwrights."
"This is a horror monologue, right? Theatre makers may see themselves in this picture and not like it. But this is brilliantly biting commentary on how some theatres treat the "new play initiatives" they claim to champion. Someone please read Agnes' play!"
"Absolutely hilarious. Houk nails the insanity of submission fees, formatting rules, and all the hoops playwrights have to jump through. Ray O. Sunshine is the perfect over-the-top guide for this satire, and the chum bucket bit had me laughing out loud. A sharp, fun piece that any writer will instantly relate to."
