Anonymous

We all have our stories. "New and old, complete and untold." Anonymous is a story of every teenager: the new kid trying to fit in, the best friends, the love interests, the kid in the corner with their secret, the group of individuals each trying to belong.

The teenagers of Anonymous have no names because they are "Me" and "You." They are everyone.

Tracey Buchner

Islands High School

This is a great play for a large cast, but you can also cast multiple parts for actors, if needed. It really challenges your group.

Simon McAllister

Groves Academy

It was a great production for our upper school students to perform in the One Act competition. Well received by all involved.

Ryan Lewis

Old Colony RVTHS

For a competitive piece, this show was perfect! We loved the storyline and connection to characters. A minimal set is easily achieved. We used 6 chairs, 2 tables, 1 whiteboard, and 1 seesaw. The judges appreciated the minimalistic set where they were able to focus on the acting with no distractions. We were able to put this show together in about a month and it was highly successful.
