Great for Drama I classes,

This review is from: Forensics Duo Series Volume 1: 35 8-10 Minute Original Comedic Plays for Duo Practice and Performance (Paperback)
I was really skeptical about this series, as so many others like it have been filled with lame scenes and weak writing; however, I was surprised. Most of the scenes are quite well crafted, although the endings tend to be a bit abrupt.I have used the scenes in competitive forensics and in the classroom with beginning theatre students. the writers give the students enough depth of characterization to provide challenge to the beginning actor and enough room for the experienced actor to add nuances and take the scene to a higher plane.

BE ADVISED! Coaches from Single-Sex Schools Need Not Order!,
By Susan L. Wurster (Waltham, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Forensics Duo Series Volume 1: 35 8-10 Minute Original Comedic Plays for Duo Practice and Performance (Paperback)
These two volumes are, indeed, highly useful for forensic coaches...well, for those in co-ed settings, anyway. I was quite surprised to find, when I received these books, that each and every scene was created for the male/female duo pair. The vast majority do not lend themselves to play by single sex pairs. (I had expected a more balanced approach with, perhaps, half designed for the male/female duo and the other half split between scenes for the female/female and male/male duo as is so often the case with scene books.) I actually felt strongly enough about this point to write to the authors--as I hope they will take the needs of those of us in single-sex schools into account and provide us with material too! A LATER ADDITION TO THIS REVIEW: I actually hear from one of the authors--and quite promptly, I might add--who agreed that this was a strong need and indicated that these works are close to completion! So, watch for them!

everything was very smooth with this purchase. i wish the cost was a little lower because I buy a lot of these books, but that is a different conversation!
