Scenes for Teens: 50 Original Comedy and Drama Scenes for Teenage Actors / Mike Kimmel

Scenes for Teens is meant to help simplify the acting and auditioning process for young performers. Created by an experienced actor with Hollywood and Broadway credits, these fifty original comedy and drama scripts are ideal for training and auditioning.  The scenes are written for two actors, are gender-neutral, and intentionally exclude costumes, props, entrances, exits, complicated stage directions, and additional characters. In this way, Scenes for Teens is specifically designed to help young performers practice dialogue in a conversational and realistic manner. This allows student actors to focus completely on the one-on-one relationship. With an inspiring foreword by Kevin Sorbo - and a clear introduction to the art and business of professional acting by the author - Scenes for Teens is an effective teaching tool for young actors, their parents, and acting coaches. This is the first book in Mike Kimmel's young actor series, and led to the follow-up books Monologues for Teens and Acting Scenes for Kids and Tweens.
