Miss Beth A one-act with a passing resemblance to a certain, unspeakable Shakespearean play (it's okay, it's public domain) by Don Zolidis

Productions (110)
Dark Comedy
|
40 - 45 minutes
9 W, 4 M,  (12-23 actors possible: 7-23 W, 0-11 M)
Set: Minimal.

Beth is pretty, popular, a valued member of the Sub-Regional Champion competitive cheer squad, and relatively happy with her life. But when a late-night Ouija board session proclaims that she will become assistant cheer captain, an unexpected and ridiculous series of supernatural events are triggered. As Beth's thirst for power grows, her moral compass goes into a tailspin -- and her popularity-hungry mom and best friend aren't helping. A campy, female-centered, modernized version of Shakespeare's dark classic.
