Comedic Plays for the Stage and Classroom (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798872169376)

Comedy gold including award-winners "A Pinch of Fate" & "Grade Semantics" in volume 6 of Mark W. Sasse's Short Play Collection.

This collection of stage-tested short plays is perfect for teens and adults alike. Most average about ten minutes in length and tell a complete story with strong characterization and all-around hilarity. These are fast-moving plays meant to be performed in a minimalistic, black box setting. They will challenge the actor's range of expression and physical movement while giving any audience an overdose of unexpected laughter.
