    Original scripts for student actors


    After Ever After

          A group of familiar fairy tale characters find themselves in a class  called "Get Real," trying to gain the skills and attitudes they'll need  in order to cope successfully in the 'real' world.  (9 characters)

    The Case of the Mixed Metaphors

          In this 1940's style detective yarn, a writer is in turmoil when she  finds she can't compose a solid metaphor without hopelessly (and  hilariously) mixing her tropes; as Detective Nick Sharp interviews an  array of eccentric suspects, he discovers that the malady is  contagious.  (11 characters) 

    On Poseidon's Pride

          Poseidon's Pride is a ship where sworn enemies unexpectedly meet on  vacation and share even more unexpected adventures; it is also the fury  of the God of the Sea, as he wrestles for supremacy with Athena, the  Goddess of Wisdom and War.  In alternating scenes, the Olympian drama  plays out invisibly around the youthful rivalry, with surprises and  consequences for all. (21 characters; for 10 actors doubly cast, or 21 actors each playing a single role)

    Over Loki's Laughter

         A companion piece to On Poseidon's Pride,  dealing with the dual worlds of Norse myth and a modern ski resort.   Two classmates, Monique and Ian (the protagonists of On Poseidon's Pride, above) face off on the slopes, as the Norse pantheon deals with the  out-of-control mischief of the notorious God of Trickery.  The mortals  are unaware of the immortal conflict around them, even as their  adolescent rivalry leads to potentially fatal outcomes.  (33 characters;  for 16 actors doubly cast, or 33 actors each playing a single role)

    A Skunk's Tale
          Saskia the Skunk arrives at a new school with a secret in her past,  only to find that she is quickly shunned by the popular crowd - Destiny  Deer and her friends.  This musical fable, with three original songs,  shines a mirror on the world of adolescence and contemplates how to deal  with isolation, bullying, and acceptance.  (14 characters)

    The War Between the Kates

          As their class studies the Civil War, two BFF's, Kate Grant and Kate  Lee, have a slight misunderstanding that escalates into an all-out, very un-civil war  - complete with all the historical trappings of the 186o's.   History lesson meets lighthearted hilarity in this metaphorical look at friendship gone awry. (22 characters; for 14 actors with some  double casting, or 22 actors each playing a single role).
