  • 1.  Good 10 minute scenes

    Posted 10-05-2015 09:56

    Hi everyone! 

     

    I'm desperately looking for two 10-15 minute scenes for High School students! 

    Anyone has ideas??

    I have a number of free duet scenes on website from published plays.

    And playscripts has recently published a collection of 10-minute plays of mine, (all with 2 characters), entitled Mutually Assured Destruction: 10 plays about Brothers and Sisters.

    I really like Plays in Ten and Ten-Minute Plays/Theatre by David S. Raine. Well-written with a range of comedy and drama, as well as varied cast sizes. Reasonable royalty. Dramatic Publishing.

    Are you looking for two person scenes? Or multiple/large cast?

    For larger casts, there's an excellent scene in 'Homework Eats Dog and Other Woeful Tales' that requires 18 students, (2 main, 10 one-liners). The scene where Diane comes in with her 17 'identical' twins...

    I can't remember, for there are two very similar conversations, but 'Mutually Assured Destruction' is very funny, and is full of two-handers, siblings. Very, very funny.

    I'm also told that 'Too Much Light Makes the baby Go Blind' might be an excellent choice, too. Playscripts.com  30 plays in 60 minutes...
