Anyone know a good one act play for a budding director?

I just want a couple of suggestions so if you have directed of performed in a memorable little production and can give me some feedback about it, that would be great.

I would like to do something with a little comedy in it or I would consider a strong dramatic piece also.

Any helpful comments accepted.

Many happy regards,

Jeff Watkins

Jeff:

I have two. No royalties for educational institutions and amateur theatre companies. They both have 1 simple set, run approximately 35 minutes in length, have had mutiple productions, and possess well-defined characters. They are entitled GOLDEN ELLIOTT and GODDESSES OF THE WESTERN WORLD and are available at :

In addition, I recently completed a full-length, dark comedy. It provides roles for "fat" actors. UP AND DOWN THE BATHROOM SCALE is a new, full-length comedic play focusing on a group of individuals suffering from obesity volunteer as guinea pigs for a pharmaceutical-research project that is testing a new super diet drug. If the program is 100% successful, the pharmaceutical company promises to pay the volunteersÂ’ taxes for life. However, three weeks into the clinical trial everything plummets into absolute calamity. Thus, proving the old adage that when things go wrong, they go wrong all the way. Six roles for obese actors (4F, 2 M). Three other roles (3M, normal weight range.) If interested, I can send to you as an email attachment (Word.doc or Rich.txt).

Cheers, Linda
