Looking for 15 Minute Show to Teach Tech Theatre

  • 1.  Looking for 15 Minute Show to Teach Tech Theatre

    Posted 5 hours ago

    THEATRE TEACHERS - I NEED YOUR BRAINPOWER!

    Three students engaged in a tech theatre workshop

    I'm on the hunt for the perfect 15-minute play to use in a hands-on technical theatre summer workshop, and I want YOUR best recommendations.

    Here's the goal:
    I need a short play that's a goldmine for teaching ALL the elements of technical theatre - lights, sound, set, props, costumes, maybe even some fun effects or creative staging opportunities.

    What I'm looking for:
    • 15 minutes or so in length 
    • High school-friendly (and actually engaging!)
    • Something students would enjoy reading, not just tolerate
    • Strong potential for creative design choices
    • Clear moments for cues, transitions, and storytelling through tech

    Thanks for your suggestions and responses.
