Plays that Emphasize Physical Expression

All our plays are suitable for high school production. Our scripts are written and chosen with the high school performer in mind. That means we are always thinking about who is going to perform our plays, the limitations (such as cast size, language and budget) that may be involved, and the role played by theatre arts in a well-rounded education. Visit our homepage for more information.
