Blue Moon Plays Imprint

Scripts for plays published in the Blue Moon Plays Imprint are challenging plays for theaters with an edge.  The scripts are about the lives of the underrepresented and ignored in society.

They include strange, provocative or controversial issues like school shootings, growing up gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender, drugs, black history, slavery, politics, political farce, demons, the occult, the irreverent, the weirdly wonderful.

Full of surprises these plays often challenge actors, directors, set designers with some aspect that’s way out of the ordinary.
