Reactions to Peter Snoad’s plays are as diverse—and distinctive—as the plays themselves.
- There’s the award-winning drama Guided Tour, about an African-American Renaissance man in jail for burning down an historic mansion, and the young law student desperate to prove him innocent.
- The satirical Orbiting Mars in which a man claiming to be the Roman god of war blackmails his way to stardom on stage and screen.
- The dark comedy, The Greening of Bridget Kelly, featuring an activist teen who murders her sexually abusive father to fight global warming.
- And there’s farce, too: Identity Crisis explores the growing and unpublicized phenomenon of white people turning Black.
Peter’s plays have received more than 60 productions and staged readings in the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Singapore. He’s been honored with two national new play awards and a playwriting fellowship from the Massachusetts Cultural Council. On this site, you can download for free any of Peter’s short plays as well as excerpts from his full-length plays. And if you like what you find, you can purchase production rights.
