Synopsis

Things That Go Bump, Volume 2 contains five recent Canadian plays for young adult audiences.These plays are about real and current issues. Teachers and theatre professionals looking for new work for young adults will find the scripts topical and refreshing examples of good writing and good scene work. An interview with the playwright follows each script, discussing the play's evolution and intent. Plays include:

In This World by Hannah Moscovitch

Offensive Fouls by Jason Long

Learning The Game by Janice Salkeld

To Be Frank by Brian Drader

Binti's Journey by Marcia Johnson

Cast sizes vary: a one-actor monologue, two scripts for two actors, one script for four actors, and one requiring at least four actors but capable of expanding to an ensemble. In This World, Offensive Fouls and To Be Frank were originally written for touring to secondary schools, Learning The Game toured via the Fringe and community groups as well as in schools, and Binti's Journey (a stage adaptation of Deborah Ellis' The Heaven Shop) is designed for the senior-elementary / junior-high age group.
