    If you are not familiar with the Play At Home  project, check it out.  Theaters around the country (Woolly Mammoth, Long Wharf, The Public, Kennedy Center, Silk Road Rising to name just a few...) commissioned playwrights to create 10 Minute Plays.  There are dozens of wonderful scripts on the site, written by a very diverse group of professional playwrights.  There is a wide variety of themes, cast sizes, styles, etc.  I feel like they met their mission to "invite people to get offline and into their imaginations, "pay some artists," and "inspire joy and connection."  Scripts can be downloaded for free for perusal and each playwright's bio page includes contact information if anyone wants to produce a play at their school. I have been reading scripts with my students all year and we are planning a 10 Minute Play festival this spring.   Play At Home
