Lights Up: A Collection of 20 Ridiculous Scenes for Young Actors

Lights up on...
Four kids trapped in a basement, surrounded by killer penguins, or...
Two filthy rich aristocrats racing each other around the world, or...
A supervillain's parents unexpectedly drop by to check out her new secret lair

Welcome to the unpredictable pages of LIGHTS UP, a compilation of short scenes begging to be performed by enthusiastic young actors looking for fun and lively characters to play on stage!

Dive into 20 mini-plays that are perfect for all types, from the seasoned thespian to the beginning drama student, and can be acted out before an audience of hundreds, a small classroom, or in the family living room. Each ridiculous story will have young actors excited to jump on stage, eager to play these big characters! Scenes range from two to eight roles, and can be costumed and staged with a budget of hundreds, or pocket change.

A note from the Author: "I believe that young actors are dying to play strong Characters! It's probably one of the main reasons why they're experimenting with theatre at this time in their lives: to be someone and/or something completely different from what they are in real life. So let them! Encourage them to play! LIGHTS UP gives them these far-out characters to perform. They can have a blast performing as the hungry cannibal, the saucy hologram, the dumb caveman, the angry genie, or the time-traveling high schooler!"

So grab some friends, cast the show, and go out and entertain the world!
