Plays from 2025 Playwriting Competition

PSYCHOPOMP & CIRCUMSTANCE, by Greg McAffee
After a bad day that ends with getting hit by a car, Sam returns home only to be greeted by Death—laid-back, hoodie-wearing and unexpectedly human. What follows is a darkly comic, poignant conversation about unfinished dreams, parental baggage and accepting the inevitable, as Sam comes to terms with their own mortality.
INHERITANCE, by Jean Seager
After their mother dies, two brothers meet at her house and continue their past discord as they try to find her will. A high school student comes to the door and reveals the mother’s intentions for her estate.
