Knight in Shining Armour by Jos Biggs
RolesMinimum Male roles = 2. Minimum Female roles = 1. Minimum total with doubling = 6. Minimum total without doubling = 6. No chorus. The dragon and the horse are nominally male, but they are, after all, a dragon and a horse (and the horse is made from two people), so casting aginst gender is the least of the production's problems.
Run TimeAround 16 minutes. [Estimated!]
MusicNone.
StyleComedy sketch (a long sketch or a very short play!) with minimal set requirements (although it does require a rock and chains).
SynopsisA not-so-heroic knight is on a quest, but when he finds a maiden to rescue, the prospect of going up against an actual fire-breathing dragon is a bit much for him. Luckily for her, there's another option.

The Lambton Worm by Timothy Hallett and Nicholas Richards
RolesMinimum Male roles = 3. Minimum Female roles = 1. Minimum total with doubling = 5. Minimum total without doubling = 19. Chorus. Very flexible casting. There is one narrator role, but this could be shared out. Equally, the chorus could be 'all the actors'.
Run TimeAround 20 minutes. [Estimated!]
MusicA 40-page musical score is included with the Producer's Copy of the script.
StyleShort musical retelling of an English folk tale. (The music plays throughout, even though some of the narration is spoken rather than sung.) No real set requirements, but the ideal performance would put some effort into creating a fearsome worm!
SynopsisThe tale of the wild worm of Wearside and its grisly end.
It should be emphasised that 'worm' is used in its old sense of 'serpent' - so this is a story of knights fighting dragons.

RolesMinimum Male roles = 0. Minimum Female roles = 0. Minimum total with doubling = 4. Minimum total without doubling = 23. No chorus.
