Synopsis
Authored by a new group of Walden Theatre young playwrights, this collection of monologues, scenes and 10-minute one-acts explores the decisions and realizations that today's adolescents and young adults make about themselves.

Customer Reviews
- "I loved doing Choices! It definitely gives actors a variety of "choices" (PUN INTENDED) to play different characters in the scenes given. "
- Review by Maya Machelle Williams, Wilmer Hutchins HS, Dallas, Texas
Hints, Tips, and Tricks
- "I would have the actors come out on stage one-by-one to say their lines for the very first scene. I would also look at the drawings in the back of the book as a "guide," not necessarily as something mandatory, but to give a general idea. Between each scene change, allow each actor about 7 seconds to change costume, depending on how many characters are casted in the play."

Poster Suggestions
- Each poster includes a text box which allows you to customize it with your production information. Once a poster has been opened, position your mouse over the lower third portion until you see a label with instructions on entering your production information. Use the Text Select Tool to customize your poster.
- You can print the poster in its original format and hand write your information.
- Your local copy shop should be able to create prints from a file saved to disk. They might even be able to increase the size of the poster for you (although some loss of resolution will occur).
