Short plays for kids, ten minutes apiece, gathered from working playwrights for classroom drama, youth theater and acting classes.
Every part is written with a young performer in mind, which is the thing that matters when a class has to be cast from what is on the page.
What's inside
Some pieces stay close to home, on friendships and families. Others hand a young actor a fish or a chess piece to play, and the staging opens up.
Applause publishes it in the Applause Acting series, 120 pages, paperback.
From the publisher
In 10-Minute Plays for Kids, young thespians will find terrific plays by some of our most prominent playwrights - such as Sharyn Rothstein, Alex Broun, Jenny Lyn Bader, Claudia I. Haas, and Mark Harvey Levine, and by others less well known but equally terrific such as Sharai Bohannon, Suzanne Bailie, and Shirley King. The characters and situations portrayed are perfect for the kid actor.
Some of the plays explore relatable tales of friendship and family, while others allow the actors to take on the personas of nonhuman characters, such as fish and chess pieces!
10-Minute Plays for Kids is ideal for theater students, youth groups, and acting classes.
