Australian Theatre for Young People’s Home Theatre Project!
You can perform a Listies sketch in your very own lounge room.
The great people at Australian Theatre for Young People in Sydney recently asked a bunch of playwrights and writers (and us!) to write scripts for kids to perform in their very own houses.
Each script features 2-6 characters, with a mix of some young people and some adults. Anyone in your house can play any character – or multiple characters! There are no boundaries!
Our script is called LOUNGE ROOM LOCK DOWN NEWS it is a slightly stir crazy comedy sketch about presenting the latest news from your home. Warning: may contain traces of pirates.
You can have fun reading the script and putting it on in your house OR you can take part in the ATYP’s Home Theatre Project, here’s how:
