ShakeSPLOSION: The Comedies and Tragedies!!!
By Andrew Geha
This hilarious romp is a madcap dash through the comedies and tragedies written by the Bard. From (nearly) every bloody death in the Tragedies to every girl who dressed up as a boy in the Comedies, it's like watching Shakespeare's canon fired out of a cannon—scattering prose, verse and characters across the stage. Forty minutes of sword fights, word fights, witches, ghosts and murder!! Performed by teenagers!!!
Our Teacher is an Alien
By Jeff Lovett
It's the beginning of what seems like just another school year for four students at Reedsville Middle School. Until they discover the arrival of a strange new math teacher. From the first day of class, the students realize that something just isn't right about the beautiful Miss Neila. She makes odd noises in class, takes strange calls from people asking if everything is 'going as planned' and to top it all, her name spelled backwards is ALIEN! The four friends, which include the editor of the school's paper, a jock, a quiet and talented honor student and an avid science fiction nut, go as far as to spy on their teacher at home, where they discover her sitting in her living room swathed in a glowing, green light. Is Miss Neila an alien or just a strange, young teacher?
Totally Red
By Dinah Toups
This is a unique and fun retelling of the classic battle of wit and deception as told in the beloved fairy tale of Little Red Riding Hood. We meet Red (who is nobody's fool) and the wolf (who tries to be cool) and granny—well, sometimes she's left in the dark! These lively roles are great for teen and young adult actors. Totally RED! begins with a humorous version in storybook theatre style. The story continues with three- to five-minute retellings of sections within the tale, told in multiple styles: melodrama, Elizabethan,'80s hip-hop slang, and avant-garde. This play is as much fun for the performers as it is for the audience.
