Original One-Act Stage Play Script

Job ID: 40034609

Budget: £250 – £750 GBP

I need an original stage play written from scratch—something character-driven, dialogue-rich, and ready to be performed. I’ll provide the core premise, themes, and a few character notes; you’ll take it from there, shaping the dramatic arc, pacing each scene for live theatre, and formatting everything to standard stage script conventions (Courier 12 pt, character cues, clear act and scene breaks).

I’m picturing a one-act piece that runs roughly an hour, but I’m open to your structural instincts if you feel two shorter acts would serve the story better. Once we agree on direction, you’ll draft, refine through two feedback rounds, and deliver a polished script that actors can take straight to a table read.

Deliverables
• Complete stage play script in both PDF and an editable file (Final Draft, Celtx, or Word)
• Title page, dramatis personae, and concise synopsis (≈250 words) for marketing/programme use

Acceptance Criteria
• 100 % original content—no AI or previously published material
• Proper stage-play formatting and pagination
• Dialogue and action clear enough for directors and actors to follow without further rewriting
