Drama class DUO SCENES can you help us find one?


Question Posted Wednesday April 14 2010, 10:17 pm

Hello (: In my drama class we are required to do a duo scene. My partner and I are both female, 17 years old, and we are having the most DIFFICULT time finding a scene. if ya'll could help that would be absolutely FANTASTIC! we dont have a preference to whether its a drama or comedy but it does need to be 8-10 minutes long from a full length contemporary play (1950-present day). and if you could... have lots of different choices for us to pick because we may have done that play before or someone else may be doing it. i know beggars cant be choosers but... im begging you!!!! HELPP! (: SO!! theather geeks.... drama nerds... band together and help us find a kick ass duo scene! pretty please? I LOVE YOU ALL!
xoxo fellow drama nerd :))

DRAMA NERD,, present.:)
Okay, so I'm on the speech team and this is usually what we need for a duo piece.
I do't know names, because, the best ones are from books of short stories/skits.
Go to amazon.com
type in what you want, I understand that you don't care-comedy/drama. But if you have an idea, your preformance will be so much better.
So, anyway, type in short stories and then a keyword like rape/abuse/funny/drama just random stuff.
THEN, because no one wants to spend money:), go to your public library and see if they have these books.
Thats what I do, and since my library has an online website that I can put holds on, it makes it all the more convienet.
IF all else fails, just go with the ones suggested below.

Hope I, kind of, helped?:)

in drama i performed a scene from the play Rumors by Neil Simon. It's actually one of my favorites. Becky Shaw by Gina Gionfriddo (essayist, Charles Wright)
Billy Elliot by Lee Hall and Elton John (essayist, Una Chaudhuri)
Blasted by Sarah Kane (essayist, Alisa Solomon)
The Cripple of Inishmaan by Martin McDonagh (essayist, John Istel)
God of Carnage by Yasmina Reza (essayist, Christopher Rawson)
The Good Negro by Tracey Scott Wilson (essayist, Jill Dolan)
reasons to be pretty by Neil LaBute (essayist, Dan Bacalzo)
Ruined by Lynn Nottage (essayist, Awam Amkpa)
33 Variations by Moisés Kaufman (essayist, Nelson Pressley)
Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them by Christopher Durang (essayist, Garrett Eisler)...It's kinda long, but these were the plays that were chosen as the best plays in 08-09. Try something out of there. Hope I helped :)
