The Mishmash is a collection of plays. Each piece explores something unique; the erosion of the self ensnared in a grim medieval keep, a satirical self-help guide denouncing discrimination, a surreal monologue set within the mindscape of a protagonist unraveling due to chronic loneliness, a duologue-with-monologues piece authentically representing sapphic longing and the yearning to be truly understood whilst bound within a friendship dynamic, the loneliness a protagonist feels when ill, a protagonist being misunderstood by those around her, of how profound loneliness feels like a dark void and a protagonist wondering what the alternative outcome would have been, the trying to connect with people but receiving only crumbs, nothing, and disappointment as a result, the misplacement of the mask that was once adorned, and a protest against the illegality of tails being docked. Also embellished with some extra scrap plays: a letter to a friend, a pitch about a French New Wave film, a queer awakening, and the suppression of a protagonist’s gay self that she had repressed for years out of fear of being rejected by her loved ones and those around her.It contains 14 stageplaysyeah diverse the mishmash title is to say these are diverse works but they are together

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
