A delightfully creepy collection of 25 plays of horror and the supernatural, Theatre Macabre provides a bevy of produceable one-acts sure to put a shiver down the spines of your most discriminating audiences. This anthology of plays is Christopher Cook's best and most frightening dramas suitable for professional, community, college and experimental theatre companies. It is perfect for the late-night play-going crowds.
Cook's plays abound with tales of vampires, ghosts, werewolves, zombies, extraterrestrials, psychopaths, and even killer bees. Some of the plays in this book have been fully produced, some have received staged readings, a few are brand new and all of them are fast-paced, intriguing little gems written in the tradition of the classic Twilight Zone and Hitchcock TV series, respectively.
If you're looking for something to produce at Halloween, a one-act play festival, or an unusual addition to a season of full-length offerings, Theatre Macabre will prove an invaluable resource to add to your library of play collections. While not all the plays included are necessarily appropriate for school-aged actors to read or perform, there are a handful of scripts in the publication written specifically with middle and high school students in mind.
Theatre Macabre is a treasure trove of material for directors, producers, actors, teachers, and university professors alike. It is sure to become one of Christopher Cook's lasting legacies to the theatre world as well as the growing cult of horror enthusiasts worldwide!
