The Devil Exclusive
"WOW! This frightening and funny piece makes a thought-provoking argument for why things are the way they are, and Dunne pulls no punches with his rather dark, but cogent world-view. Scathing, hopeless, and brilliant, with a tour de force role for the title character."
-- Doug DeVita, New Play Exchange

"Love's Disenlightenment" was selected to be featured in the August 2020 Scribe Night Workshop Show run by Science Art Fusion.
Zero Hour August 28, 2020
"A fun radio piece that gets you thinking one way and spins another way completely when these troopers are facing their own time on the chopping block. A PERFECT radio play since you don't find out till the end who these soldiers are. I loved it."
-- John Busser, New Play Exchange 
One’s Cup of Tea
"Sometimes when one falls down the rabbit hole of reading plays, one finds themselves in a wonderfully weird world of absurdly surreal comedy, which was certainly the case with this wildly over-the-top short from Jeff Dunne. With anarchic glee, Dunne makes smart points about altering one's perspective and learning to relax, and by the end what seemed insane appears normal, and what passed for normal seems intolerable. I'll take some of that tea, please. And the biscuits."
-- Doug DeVita, New Play Exchange

The Unfortunate Teller August 17, 2020
"A fabulous spoof on the pseudo-psYchic! Love the friend who finds their "voice". This play should be 10 minute play festival bound!"
-- Vivian Lermond, New Play Exchange 
Love’s Disenlightenment
"Such a fun, satirical poke at a playwright/director miscommunication over the eternal question of "what is art"? A fine romp through a mine field of stretching the boundaries of imagination!"
-- Vivian Lermond, New Play Exchange 
Hellbent August 10, 2020
"It’s been a long time since I’ve laughed so much reading a show. Dunne has a wonderful sense of comedic timing and many of the lines are classic. A murder mystery in Hell… that has to be a first."
-- Gene Kato, Next Stage Press 
A Night at the Human Garden
"Pithy and pun-filled, there is a literalism in this micro-minute play that gives the audience the giggles."
-- Amanda Gunther, Theatre Bloom 
The Devil Exclusive
"The Devil Exclusive, which is far deeper than its darkly comedic elements suggest, delves into the trenches of existence, theologically battling a soul-grappling theory about religion, God, and the Devil that will send heads spinning. Regardless of your personal religious beliefs, there is powerful thought occurring here and evocative statements being proclaimed in this too-brief exploration of higher powers and their roles in the world as it stands. Dunne creates a striking masterpiece in this play, presenting shocking statements for pondering that will leave your mind whirling after the show closes, and may possibly be the only thing you think about all the rest of the night. Dunne explains the necessity of the devil, explores the notion of free will as a tenant of existence because both God and The Devil do exist, and examines all sorts of logical conclusions that spring from these principals."
-- Amanda Gunther, Theatre Bloom 
The New Death
"Dunne crafts an adorably ridiculous piece"
-- Amanda Gunther, Theatre Bloom 
Two Point Oh
"Jeff Dunne’s work in Two Point Oh is striking and brilliant as it perfectly illustrates the way technology has taken over our modern lives, only Dunne elevates this to an exponentially scary level with this piece. "
-- Amanda Gunther, Theatre Bloom 
The Unfortunate Teller
"HA! What a fun little 10 minute play. Dunne's writing is fast-paced and witty. Watching the wheels turn in the Faux-Fortune Teller's mind trying to come up with a plausible explanation for a tarot reading is comic gold. I could DEFINITELY foresee (see what I did there?) this in any 10 minute play festival."
-- John Busser, New Play Exchange
