I came across Joshua James’ “The Joshua James Project” only recently when I was looking for a short 10 minute play for our community theatre’s production of comedic plays. I was particularly drawn to “A Gay Thing” and without even getting to the end (which is, incidentally, brilliant), knew that I was onto something good and this was exactly what I wanted to direct. As a novice director, I found the simplicity in staging (sets/props/lights) helpful. We performed it to two evenings of packed houses comprising of Bangkok's theatre-loving crowd. It was well received and everyone throughly enjoyed the play, laughed through it, at points gasped and praised the choice I had made in choosing a truly entertaining piece. A good show all based on a good play and this is just one of his many entertaining works. I am already in the planning of doing another Joshua James’ play.

This play as well as the 43 other plays in this superb collection touches on adult issues and contains language that is not suitable for kids, but each is written well with real insight and observation. There are quick comebacks, clever humor, and real life situations written clearly and boldly. A joy to produce, direct, perform, watch or in this case read. I strongly recommend that you add this and his other books to your read list or collection.
