Find the right sketch, skit or short play script for your group The boundaries between sketches, skits and ten-minute plays is a little vague. (I think that sketches are generally short and humorous, whereas plays tend to have more plot and/or character development. Skits should contain an element of parody. That's just my opinion! You can make up your own mind!) We have lots of scripts in all three categories, so we offer lots of ways to find the right scripts for you. All the scripts can be read in full on the Internet. Click on any of the underlined text to see descriptions of the works in your chosen category (from where you will find links to the on-line text)... | |||

Browse through descriptions of all our short
scripts, divided into
prose scripts and
verse plays and sorted alphabetically by title. Note that the scripts from these pages are the ones that we think are suitable for performance by adult groups. For scripts for youth theatre groups, see our kids' play scripts pages. | The Sketches and Short Plays search engine allows you to select a script by number of characters, run-time, age of participants, and lots more! (This is a sub-set of our full search engine. Use the full script search engine if you want more search parameters, such as the ability to search by author and theme.) | ||

Note and Disclaimer: We base our estimates of run-times
on word-count. Actual times will vary considerably, according to the slickness
of production and the amount of stage business. Our nominal definition of this category is a run time of under 20 minutes. Scripts lasting exactly 20 minutes (by our estimate) are included for completeness. | ||
