29 Plays Later – Challenge 23 – War on Words!
Ok. So, this was actually really fun to do. Taking a made up language, and trying to make sense of it is utterly, joyfully silly. Thanks #29PlaysLater A small, fat man walks on stage and stands behind a lectern. He wears a huge hat, lots of gold braiding and epiletttes, and is smoking a huge…
29 Plays Later – Challenge 22 – Something about Sarah Brightman…
Well, today got trippy (again). I think I may be tired. I also realise it’s been a really long time since I posted a play. I will work back and find them all at some point. If nothing else, just to prove I dids the deeds. Albeit without my usual level of planning or panache…

29 Plays Later – Challenge 6 – OATES: THE COMPILATION MUSICAL
CHALLENGE: Operas… musicals… revues… love ’em or hate ’em – music has been a part of theatre since the very beginning, so why not embrace it? Come on – let’s write something with songs!

The Brief: Challenge 5 – Due 06/02 at 10am GMT OK, so we’ve been focusing too much and worrying about writing good stuff how about writing some shite? Like, proper total crap. (not literally! You know who you are!) Not as easy as it sounds. Just have no filters. Let yourselves go. Now, typos are…
29 Plays Later – Day 4 – Play 4 – MÁTHĒMA
This is deeply weird… And no idea where this came from… My id has a lot to answer for… Also copying and pasting. Formatting is getting weirder but too tired to correct it. lFx FAde up: SCENE 1 – The Library of alexandria Palladas and Hypatia are in discourse in the Library of Alexandra….
29 Plays Later – Day 3 – Play 3 – SADIE
LIGHTS – Nothing fancy just ordinary house lights: Sadie, 33. She’s nothing if not high energy. Stand infront of a PowerPoint presentation. It’s in stark contrast to Sadie; black navy and white, Mackerith Einsenhower Neuman logos and spiky line charts. Sadie also has her laptop on stage. It’s covered in bright, colourful stickers. SADIE Hi….
29 Plays Later Day 1 & Day 2
Source: 29 Plays Later Day 1 & Day 2 Pondering today’s challenge. It’s a bit more interesting and I want to give it some real thought. But in the meantime my brilliant, articulate friend, Drew, has written his thoughts on the challenge and posted his responses. Please read them. They are well worth your time.
29 Plays Later. Day 1. Play 1. Heart Strings.
First Movement. A piece of string lies across the width of the stage. Mae and Victor walk on from opposite sides of the stage. The string runs directly from Victor’s heart to Mae’s. Mae has her head in a book, as well as a pair of gloves. Victor has his hands in…
