Best Plays for Community Theatres

You can’t go wrong with a play from Pioneer Drama Service for your community theater!  From one acts to full lengths, we offer an incredibly broad range of family-friendly community theater plays including comedies and dramas, dinner theatre, murder mysteries with or without audience participation, literary adaptations, Christmas plays, and melodramas.  In addition to staged performances, livestream and recording rights are available for all community theatre plays!  The sets and costumes in most of our shows are designed to be as simple or as complex as your budget allows, and we encourage you to enhance your production with projections, as well.  With fixed royalty fees that are the same no matter your ticket price, our plays also make fantastic fundraisers for your community!

These are the 20 most popular plays done by community theatres.
