The following plays were commissioned specifically to be taken on tour to schools. Because of the touring needs, the cast and technical requirements were kept small.

Royalties for these plays are $30.00 per performance.

You can receive a perusal copy of the play (so you can decide if you’d like to produce it) by agreeing to follow the performance/royalty agreement should you actually produce the play.
