THE VISIT |
A Short Play in Two Acts
by URSULA KENNEDY
| Cast: | 17 speaking parts (12m, 5f ) + crowd. |
| Suggested Age Range: | 8 to 11 or 13 |
| Approx. Running Time: | 40 minutes [ + interval] |
| Music: | Any two (or more) well known popular tunes, if possible to be played on stage on any suitable instruments. |
| Set: | Versatile enough to include a car, a space-ship and two interior scenes; considerable scope for use of lighting and sound effects. |
| Synopsis: | A typical English couple are returning home at night when their car stops inexplicably and they are hi-jacked to another planet. Their reactions provide a humorous view of human life, as their children have to be summoned to join them before the inquisitive minds of the space-people can be satisfied. A simple conclusion does not detract from the effective theme of a well-constructed and lively observation of our society. |
