Puzzle Pieces

Puzzle Pieces

by Krista Boehnert

Deciphering others and yourself can feel like putting together a puzzle. Everyone is a complex arrangement of parts that must be pieced together to reveal the full picture of who they are.

In Puzzle Pieces, teens try to understand themselves and those around them by exploring the different pieces that make them who they are. Through personal, revealing monologues, the characters share fears, dreams, and defining moments.

The result is a collection of complex, imperfect, and relatable individuals. Honest, emotional, and deeply human, Puzzle Pieces reminds us that everyone has a story worth listening to.

An excellent script for character study, monologue classwork, and competition use.
