Buying An Arabian Nights Play Script

By Anita Ortega


There are many different online websites offering scripts for purchase. It is important to know how to go about choosing one which is right for a particular group and the audience who will be watching. An arabian nights play script offers a great opportunity for a large group such as a community theater group, a church group or a school group.

The stories told by this amazing storyteller include many favorites such those about Aladdin and Sinbad and Ali Baba. They contain so many different elements like fantasy, horror, satire and foreshadowing. A full range of human emotions like courage, greed, loyalty and love are expressed. This is why they can hold an audience spellbound, just as they did the king. Schererazade always left her story unfinished and the king did not kill her because he just had to find out how each story ended.

It is possible to compare what is offered by different sellers of scripts online to find exactly what you are looking for. Some of the scripts are more suitable for adult audiences whilst others are written specifically for children. Factors such as the cast size and the running time are also important. Some scripts are more suited to a large, mixed cast and others to a limited cast. The number of sets required can also make a difference to the cost of a production.

Most online websites offer a synopsis of the play as well as a sample of the script. You are also able to find out where and by whom plays have already been produced and reading reviews about past productions can be enlightening. Music may be included with excerpts of the songs available to listen to on the site. Sometimes advice on scenery, props and costumes is also included.

Another important factor to bear in mind is that some sellers are quite happy to allow minor adaptations to be made. Other sellers are much stricter in this regard. They do not want changes to be made without submitting them for approval. They may even require prior approval for changes to the music used.

You need to check whether there are any other costs involved besides the initial purchase fee. For example, some sellers ask for payment of royalties for use of the material. Others only charge an initial amount for purchase. Finding out whether photocopies are allowed to be made of scripts is important too. This may not be acceptable and costs can be increased by having to purchase a number of scripts.

Once buyers have paid for their purchase, the physical script may be shipped to them. However, nowadays it is often simply a matter of following on-screen instructions to download a PDF of the material to your hard drive. An electronic script may be stored for you on the website of the seller and you can simply log on to your account to access it.

Undertaking such a production offers audiences a spectacle of color, music and magic. There are always various ways for a producer to bring their own unique imaginative expression to the material. Audiences are exposed to a bewitching world of genies and princesses, wonderful accessories, sets and backdrops to tell these fascinating stories.
