What people have said about Faded Shorts

There is a whole Theory of Relativity/science fiction/23 & Me layer that makes the story very contemporary. To make sense of that sentence, you will simply have to watch the performance. The Patch Review, Naugatuck, CT (on Relativity & Me)

This set of shorts -- featuring a great group of quirky female characters -- is energetic and entirely engaging. Len Cuthbert has a wonderful imagination for the possibilities of sci fi, technology and metaphor, woven into what at first seem to be everyday situations and then turn into very high stakes, moving, life-and-death conflicts. I leaned in throughout. Would love to see the entire evening staged. Victoria Z. Daly (VictoriaZDaly.com), Playwright, Script Consultant, Educator. Founding Director of 9th Floor, NYC.

I highly recommend this collection of pieces about life and death, time and space, family and strangers, and of most importance, roller coasters. Several rapid-fire, surprising, tender and heart-breaking plays that would make a wonderful evening of theater. John Busser (behance.net/johnbusser0391).

Faded Shorts was among our Final Favorites; in this jury process. Theatre Company

This is a great set of shorts strung together by a really engaging and thought-provoking theme. Fast paced, funny, and ominous all in one breath. This playwright has a flare for turning slice of life moments into something surprising and thought-provoking. I'd love to see this evening of shorts on stage. Great roles for women / female identifying actors - it would be a lot of fun to dig into as an actor. Jennifer Walton, Playwright and co-artistic director and member of Women's Work Playwright Collective in Hamilton, Ontario.mance ProgramMusic Theatre Performance Program
