A collection of 20 short, comedic scenes that flip familiar nursery-rhyme and fairy-tale figures into modern, performable situations. Each piece is written for ease of rehearsal and stage-ready presentation, with a light, contemporary comedic tone.

Scenes are split between approximately five-minute pieces for 2–3 performers and ten-minute pieces for larger casts (up to 20). Most roles are gender-flexible and several scenes can be expanded for full-class participation. The table of contents notes cast size, gender suitability, and a one-line summary for quick selection.

Ideal for drama classes, workshops, and ensemble rehearsals—these scripts emphasize clear beats, character-driven comedy, and adaptable staging. Examples include modernized setups (a sports-style interview with Jack during his candlestick training) that make classic characters feel fresh for students.

  • 20 scenes: short and extended formats
  • 2–20 cast sizes; many gender-flexible roles
  • Designed for classroom, rehearsal, and performance use
