Perfect gift for the grad

June 22, 2011

I have always felt that our anthologies are the perfect gift for the graduate.  If they have just finished high school and are entering college with an interest in theatre, our books give a sampling of so many of the kinds of theatre being made and offer a glimpse into the work of so many playwrights.  We’ve published 174 to date.

If they are done with college and possibly pursuing a theatrical career in any manner, our books offer hundreds of monologues for auditions or scene work – tailored to the individual taste of the reader.

And now that we have branched out into ebooks, there is even more choice.  Check out our books and those available on kindle and nook and give a thoughtful gift to your favorite graduate.

Each and everyone is a great read – and an ever greater production. And so many ways to buy the book.
