Download or read book Twenty Five Short Plays written by Dana Coen and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the fall of 2011, The Long Story Shorts One Act Festival was launched, featuring performances of short plays written by undergraduate students in the Writing for the Screen and Stage minor, an interdisciplinary, dramatic writing program housed in the Department of Communication at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Marking the first five years of the festival, this anthology showcases works written to be performed in ten minutes with a small production budget. The festival gives students a unique opportunity to participate in a collaborative, developmental environment led by experienced faculty and professional actors and directors, and the plays included here rise to the occasion. Whether they are humorous, poignant, powerful, or provocative, they demonstrate why the short play form has become so popular; why this event has become one of the highlights of the university's cultural scene; and why the Writing for the Screen and Stage program has thrived.

Download or read book Love Stories or But You Will Get Used to It written by Itamar Moses and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A casting session for a play about a love affair goes awry. A talk-back with a theater audience becomes the occasion for a life-altering choice. A couple moving in together finds that greater intimacy can be a mixed blessing when even the surface of their dialogue is stripped away. Metatheatrical antics abound in Itamar Moses’s Love/Stories (or, but you will get used to it), five one-act meditations on modern love and on the act of telling stories — in which a variety of inventive devices stresses the ineradicable gap between art and experience. Reminiscent of the works of both Samuel Beckett and David Foster Wallace in their verbal dexterity, humor, and generosity, the plays collected in Love/Stories constitute an important addition to the contemporary American theater by one of our most exciting young playwrights.

This version includes an audio book: listen to the story as you read. Written for Learners of English by Martyn Ford. What do you do if you have a boring job in a restaurant, serving fast food to people who have no time to eat? Smile, and do your best? Perhaps it's better to find a place where time doesn't matter so much. What if you dream of travelling to other countries, but your friends just laugh? Do you stay at home with them? Or do you decide to be more adventurous? Perhaps you hear that someone has bought the last bag of salt in town. Do you buy a bag from him at a high price? Or try to make him give you a bag? Our world is full of these kinds of problems. They make life interesting, and sometimes very funny. These five short plays show people trying to decide what to do in unexpected or difficult situations.

This Bright Notes Study Guide explores the context and history of Tennessee Williams’ classic work, helping students to thoroughly explore the reasons they have stood the literary test of time. Each Bright Notes Study Guide contains: - Introductions to the Author and the Work - Character Summaries - Plot Guides - Section and Chapter Overviews - Test Essay and Study Q&As The Bright Notes Study Guide series offers an in-depth tour of more than 275 classic works of literature, exploring characters, critical commentary, historical background, plots, and themes. This set of study guides encourages readers to dig deeper in their understanding by including essay questions and answers as well as topics for further research.
Download or read book Things We Said Today written by Neil LaBute and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2016-05-09 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Things We Said Today features the scripts for Neil LaBute’s groundbreaking Directv project 10x10—a series of short films written and directed by LaBute based on ten compelling original monologues, five each for men and women.  Also included are five short plays displaying the power and scope of Neil LaBute’s creative vision. In Pick One, three white guys come up with a way to solve America’s problems; in The Possible one young woman seduces another’s boyfriend for an unexpected reason. Call Back features an actress and actor who spar about a past encounter that she, unnervingly, remembers much better than he does. Good Luck (In Farsi), “a pleasingly astringent study in competitiveness and vanity†? (The New York Times) has two actresses pulling out all the stops in a preaudition psych out; and in Squeeze Play a father and his son’s baseball coach strike a mutually beneficial deal. Rounding out the collection are two monologues commissioned as part of Centerstage’s “My America†? project.
