Where can you find free or cheap scripts for middle school students?

Question

I am a new middle school teacher who loved performing in plays throughout school. I would like to have my students perform a play, yet with a district wide budget cut, I will have to fund this project myself. I am not against writing my own script, but was only curious if there were any good sources for a small school play. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! :)

Answer 1

You can get scripts for many plays appropriate for chlidren at this site: http://childrenstheatre.easystorecreator...

Answer 2

Pioneer Drama has scripts for all ages that range from Comedies to Christmas Shows to Musicals. They are reasonably priced and have a wonderful selection. Just go to pioneerdrama.com.

I would personally recommend King Artie and the Knights of the Rad Table (a spoof on King Arthur) or Big Bad (the modern day trial of the big bad wolf) for middle school students. Both those plays are hilarious and are so much fun to perform!

Good luck!
