    Looking for one act plays. Large cast, serious or semi serious, nothing too goofy. For a high School student to direct her classmates in.
    Thanks

    Look at Booby Trap by Ed Monk. Playscripts has it

    I second Shira's motion.  Booby Trap is a great piece: one set that can be a practically bare stage, contemporary costumes (though you will need about a half-dozen Battle Dress Uniforms), a strong and moving story, worthwhile roles for a variety of ability levels, and a creatively fluid presentation of past, present and future.  My kids loved digging into it.  My favorite memory of the performance was how quiet a festival audience of 600 teenagers became, allowing me to hear sniffles from all over the auditorium during the play's final pages.
