| Sent Back Standing by Jenny Gilbert |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 4. Minimum Female roles = 3. Minimum total with doubling = 9. Minimum total without doubling = 9. No chorus. An uneven distrubution of roles, with the play dominated with the director (though, unusually in these circumstances, the director is on stage). |

| Music | None. |
| Style | One-act play, single set (pretty much a bare stage). |
| Synopsis | A director struggles to keep her sanity through the stresses of a Tech rehearsal in a venue that's being rebuilt around the company. She's also haunted by her husband's affair, and trying to work through her private grief in a very public place. |
