Dead Men Don't Do Radio Plays
This Book is a Collection of 2 Plays:
Dead Men Don't Carry Handbags
25 Minutes, 9M+5W, Doubling Possible, Simple set
Real life and fiction collide as radio show detective Steve Powell finds himself in the middle of a hot handbag case in cold blood. Will his fake detective skills win the day?
Dead Men Don't Jaywalk
25 Minutes, 4M+5W, Doubling Possible, Simple set
A dead body jaywalks in front of radio-star-turned-movie-star detective Steve Powell. When a lady friend gets the blame, Steve puts himself on the case.
Steve Powell is radio star Frank Grayson, Private Eye. But in real life he's not as suave, doesn t have a way with the ladies and has a habit of narrating his life. But that doesn't stop crimes from falling into his life. Can little Stevie Palowski step into a PI's shoes and get the dame?
Dead men may not do radio plays, but you definitely should introduce this genre to your students. Put together a SFX crew and bring the radio sounds to life. All the effects are itemized, including suggestions.
The two plays in this collection can be performed separately or can be combined to make a full evening of theatre.
