Welcome to the bytheRIVERside . . . official website of Sid River

 
On this website you will find a collection of comedy scripts, sketches and mini-plays which you are free to use in the classroom, theatre, assembly hall or just for your own amusement. They have all been successfully tested on live children, mostly to great effect (notably in class assemblies and end of year reviews).
 
All we ask is that you credit the author with the work and possibly send an email to bytheRIVERside to let us know what you thought of it and how successful the performance was.
 
           Hi Dopey Dave
 
July news - The world cup is nearly over. England are out. So are slacks and a tank top. However, my second team, Holland are in the final so I'm hoping to go Dutch this weekend. I found out today that when a publisher contacts you and asks to see the complete manuscript of your novel, but then rejects it, it's know as a 'rave rejection'. Well I had one of those, to go with the other 14 instant rejections that I have accumulated for 'King Cody's Clocks'. Only another 83 to go! Still, it give one hope! If you are bored, why not cut your hair with an unsightly nasel hair remover. Slow but satisfying. Better still, download and perform 'A brief History of nits' if you have a spare 15 minutes and clean hair.
Cheers
Sid

FEATURED DOWNLOAD

"A Brief history of nits!"

 

 

A short sketch originally written as an extra scene in a published end of year 6 play. All about the experience of nits (something close to the heart of all schoolkids!) It works just as well stand alone for a bit of comedy and good fun!

 

  

How do I get the scripts?

EASY - Just click on the 'Downloads' link on the navigation bar for an outline of each scrpt and a link to download it in PDF format. Or you could just click HERE if you like! If we could make a cup of tea for you at this point, we would! Here's a picture of a sleeping gnome instead.
