They are all clean, and all fun, well written plays. We just did a one act (45 min play) called Drop Dead, Juliet! in which Juliet refuses to die at the end and tries to rewrite the story. It was hilarious. Oh, and it was written for a large cast.

Dave Said:

How many hours a week do school plays in high school or middle schools usually rehearse?

We Answered:

It depends on the school. I direct plays at a middle school right now, and we are only allowed to have the auditorium after school on wednesdays and fridays, so we only rehearse for an hour and a half twice a week. The rehearsals last for about 4 months.

When I was in high school, rehearsals were five days a week, 3:00-6:00 for about a month and a half.

In college, rehearsals were Mon-Fri 6:00-10:00 for anywhere from a few weeks to two months.

Most community theatres do Mon-Thur 7:00-10:00 for about 6 weeks. Some do Saturday afternoon rehearsals too.
