Again this year, Smith and Kraus combined its two annual ten-minute play books into this one volume, divided into two sections: Plays for Two Actors and Plays for Three or More Actors. Now, you can get the best ten-minute plays produced during the 2009 2010 theatrical season all in one book!



In this volume you will find a plethora of ten-minute plays, culled from hundreds received. All have been produced successfully. Some have even won awards. These plays are written in a wide variety of styles. Some are realistic, some are not. Some are comic (laughs); some are dramatic (no laughs).



There are a few plays in this book by playwrights who are fairly well-known, such as Don Nigro, Carson Kreitzer, Elaine Romero, Bridgette A. Wimberly, Richard Vetere and P. J. Gibson; but most are by terrific new writers you never heard of, playwrights destined without a doubt to become far better known when their full-length plays get produced by major theatres. And you read their work first here!
