Purpose: To assist in the promotion of No Shame as a growing network of member franchises by providing a source of quality scripts which new No Shames may use on nights when their line up is less than full so that their audience base may reasonably expect a full evening of theatre while they are building a core group of regular writers of their own.
Script pages marked with a
indicate that the author(s) has/have given permission for their piece to be used by performers at other No Shames to supplement their show when there is a shortage of scripts locally.
The following comic scenes have been submitted to the No Shame First Aid Kit. Be sure to check for the.
