"Do you know how long I've been waiting for the man of my dreams? It ain't been a minute and it ain't been pretty."
Description
Waiting... Waiting... Waiting... What are you waiting for, right now?
Christmas to come? The phone to ring? Class to be over? The man of your dreams? The line to move? The answer? To be yelled at for setting a toilet on fire?
We all have to wait. How long will you? Could you wait all day, or is it killing you? Are you staring at the phone, the line, the door, a clock? A watched clock never boils you know...
This is a vignette play! What is a Vignette Play?
What is a Vignette Play?
You want...
...a play for your whole class.
...a large cast.
...a simple set.
...simple costumes.
...a play that suits a large group of beginners. Or a smaller advanced group.
Then you are looking for a vignette play.
A vignette play is a collection of short scenes on a theme. Theatrefolk vignette plays cover themes from waiting to driving to communication to hair to snow and even to Shakespeare! You'll love working with the variety and flexibility of the scenes. Your actors will love the fast pace and fun characters.
There's more. Every Theatrefolk vignette play holds the unexpected. A showcase monologue. A dramatic moment. A change in form. A left turn.
Experience these fun, joyful, energetic ensemble-driven competition-ideal pieces.
The value of Theatrefolk vignette plays is clear on the page and on the stage.
