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
 
FEBRUARY NEWS - Ah, the month of romance, more snow, rain, no leftover Christmas cake and continuing dark nights (Big up to all SAD sufferers, your therapy starts here!) If you want romance with a twist, check out 'Rodney 'n' Jools - a modern scene from a balcony (short but sweeeeet!) One of Shakespeare's lesser know plays that he wrote in collaboration with the Two Ronnies. I haven't changed the featured play because it still has some energy left in it but I have added a new play called "Eureka! Eureka! - Inventions and discoveries through the ages!". It's in a 'beta' format (that's a geek's way of saying that it might have a few errors that I have not thoroughly checked yet!) but I wanted to get it on quickly. I will check it for next week! Happy drama time!
Cheers
Sid

"What on Earth is the matter?"

This is a piece about the environmental destruction of our planet, with a few laughs and plenty of word puns of course! More of a long sketch than a short play. This could be used as part of a larger show or assembly that has the same theme or message.

 

  

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.
