Snapshots - Witty, fast moving dialogue. A charming collection of short vignettes that capture some of life's brightest "snapshot" moments.... the moments we love to remember; the moments we long to forget! Audience participation in the dialogue and action keeps this comedy performance spontaneous and sparkling!

*Snapshots like - the young husband's new wife popping out of the cake at his best friend's bachelor party!

*Snapshots of a family reunion - The audience plays all the unpleasant in-laws!

*Snapshots of the young vegetarian bride training her meat eating new groom the joys of grocery shopping.

*Snapshots of the young couple's anniversary....not quite what anyone expected!

Because this comedy requires no scenery, no special lighting, no formal stage space, this play tours easily and performs effectively in any venue.... classrooms, clubhouses, private restaurant dining rooms and/or church fellowship halls. No complicated load-in or set up.... just four chairs that move around to create the play's many scenes!

The expandable cast size, the audience participation, the careful blocking, the meticulous comic timing, and the necessity for the performers to create many different and distinct characters make this play a valuable teaching tool for actors and actresses..... and a wonderful evening's entertainment for social, school, or civic events.

Snapshots is scripted for four performers, two men and two women, but easily adapts to use six to ten performers. An even number of actors to actresses is recommended.

Snapshots plays continuously for approximately forty minutes. No breaks or pauses should be taken between the vignettes. $40/$30
