One-Act Plays for Teens and Adults Written by WARD NORCUTT

Once Upon A While

The premise of this one-act play is that of a reality-based talent show, much like American Idol. It is the final show of the season in Fantasia. There are four entries left to show their Mundane Tales, spoofs that feature a distinctly different moral or lesson to live by. Each play within the play has its own characteristic “flavour” – where each play follows a very different, particular genre. Two of the four “mini-plays” feature song and dance.

  • A Comedy with music
  • 45 – 60 minutes
  • Interchangeable male and female
  • Roles: 60+ characters ( 15 – 30+ performers possible )
  • High school and older
