One of the most exciting things about upcoming one-act version of The Love of Three Oranges is how quickly everything came together. One minute I was toying with the idea of writing an abridged version and the next I was handing in the final version, the contract signed.
But one of the best things about this speed is that it means the play should be out as soon as this fall. And that deadline never seemed more real than today when Playscripts sent out a sneak peek of their upcoming catalog to subscribers. Three Oranges is a recommended play for Middle School, High School and College audiences, which is really cool to get that endorsement to all three of those groups, but also gets this unexpected honor…
Check out that real estate! Truff and the gals have a good 1/3 of that page all to themselves in the Middle School section. Couple this with the fact that the blurb for the one-act cross promotes the full length play too and the show has a huge presence in this year’s catalog. This could be an exciting year!
There’s just one small problem. The play isn’t actually available yet and I’m not sure exactly when it will be. I just hope anyone who gets the catalog remembers to check back later when they can actually read a preview or order the script! That said, Playscripts has a sign-up here if you want to be emailed the moment scripts are available so, please, if you are interested in the show, take a moment to avail yourself of that!
In the meantime, you can peruse the rest of the catalog before it ships to subscribers below. There’s a lot of really exciting shows coming out this year and you’ll want to check them out while you’re waiting for Three Oranges… 😉
