Scenes That Happen
Dramatized snapshots about the real life of high schoolers

Here is a hit for any classroom!  Written for you and your students, this helpful text contains thirty-four real-life scenes for boys, girls and mixed casts.  Each with two to four actors; ideal for classroom or stage performances.  They are also excellent for use as contest scripts because student actors portray themselves in the unbearable and impossible situations of teenage existence.  The thoughtful and touching themes include dating, popularity, growing up, graduation, suspension from school, and moving-experiences to laugh about and cry about.  The scene lengths vary from four to seven minutes each.  All scenes are royalty-free with book purchase.  Some of the sample scenes include Breaking Up Is Hard to Do, Beaching It, Girl Talk, Moving Out, The Jerk, Midnight Run, and Taking a Joke.
