A one-act play is a play that has only one act, as distinct from plays that
occur over several acts.
For this assignment you and your partner are going to write a one act play.
The style is up to you and your partner, refer to your genres of plays for your
choices. Whatever style you pick must be evident in your writing, i.e. a
comedy must be funny.
Your one act play will consist of 5 scenes. By the end of scene 5 the whole
story must be told.
You will be required to complete the brainstorm as well as a final typed
