Social Awareness Plays

Pioneer Drama Service is proud to offer a wide selection of thought-provoking plays about social values, life choices, and their consequences.  Many of these plays, without being preachy or trite, open up discussions about ethics, remaining true to yourself, friendship, love, and loss.  Other plays have timely, topical themes such as bullying, gossip, gangs, teen pregnancy, drug and alcohol abuse, divorce, depression, suicide, and more.  All are ideal for contest or other dramatic presentations.

Pioneer Drama Service proudly carries 82 social awareness plays about a variety of social issues affecting teens and youths.
