Playscripts, the easy to produce play imprint of Broadway Licensing Global, proudly announces the addition of Don Zolidis’ new one-act play, The Price, to its catalog of titles. The play is now available for licensing to schools and theatres worldwide.
Set on a freezing winter night, The Price follows the story of a young mother who generously provides shelter to a stranger, only to wake up and discover her sick daughter has been taken by Death. The ordeal sends the mother on a poignant journey to bring her child back home. The play offers young performers a powerful opportunity to challenge themselves by exploring complex themes of loss, resilience, and the consequences of making difficult choices.
“We are thrilled to add Don Zolidis’ The Price to our Playscripts catalog,” said Ted Chapin, Chief Executive Officer of BLG. “Don has an incredible gift for writing plays that connect with young people—capturing the humor, challenges, and experiences they care about most.”
As one of the most-produced playwrights in the United States, Zolidis has published more than 100 plays, resulting in more than 25,000 productions and 50,000 performances across the globe. “As a former middle and high school teacher, Don knows firsthand what gets students excited to perform,” continues Dan Markley, Chief Operating Officer of BLG. “His plays are highly relatable, making it easy to see why every Zolidis show makes young actors want to take the stage.”
