First published in 1996 and now updated, this book contains plays by established New Zealand writers that were written for lunchtime theatre. They are informal one-act plays, lasting less than an hour, requiring little in the way of stage equipment and props, and suitable for a wide range of audiences. Their condensed form gave their authors an opportunity to experiment with scripting and characterization. Together, they represent a variety of perspectives and performance styles. The plays offered small "adventures in theatre" for the writer, and continue to do so for directors, performers, audiences and readers.
