To celebrate their high school graduation, three friends decide to make lemonade out of their canceled senior trip by taking their first unchaperoned trip–to the Magic Kingdom in Orlando, Florida. However, secret fears and resentments simmer beneath the surface of their camaraderie: Dakota’s post-graduation anxiety, Calliope’s post-breakup woes, and Sage’s uneasiness with her burgeoning sexuality. Despite the closeness they shared in the past, none of these young women share their feelings, which drives a wedge into their friendship. The heat gets turned up when they encounter a pair of young men, and the harsh truths of the next phase of their lives bubble to the surface. Palm Tree Shadow explores the liminal space between childhood and adulthood–and what is left behind.
How We Price
Our pricing is simple and transparent. Each play includes two parts: a one-time script fee of $150, which grants you immediate access to the play and permission to copy and share it within your program; and a performance license of $65 per performance, which covers your live productions for the selected license duration.
How You License
At checkout, select your license duration (for example, the current or next school year) and the number of performances you plan to give. Each license covers live, in-person performances.
What You Get
You’ll receive an instant PDF download of the full script. During your license period, you’re free to copy, print, and share the script within your school or theatre program for rehearsal and performance use—no per-script fees or copy limits.
