Synopsis
From Pioneer Drama Service:
The course of true love never runs smoothly. Consequently a marriage counselor has opened an office
in the kingdom to see how famous fairy tale couples are faring. Everywhere the counselor looks--
disaster! Sleeping Beauty will do nothing but nap; the Frog Prince refuses to give up his amphibian
ways; and nothing will pry Cinderella away from her beloved cinders. Naturally, the spouses are
complaining, and there is no choice but to rewrite the endings of the famous stories. Everyone is
run through the computer for new matches. While the results are not exactly pleasing to the
newlyweds, (Prince Charming ends up with Cinderella's stepmother, for example), they're hilarious to
the audience. Finally, even the counselor himself admits he needs help! The comedy is for all
groups, and can be played as a farcical romp or as a wry commentary on human nature.

Synopsis
From the Dramatic Publishing Company:
Stephanie's having a sleep-over with her friends when they are joined by her young cousin Melissa
who can't get to sleep because she's afraid of the dark. But soon the monsters come out from under
the bed and no one can get to sleep. As each girl describes her own personal fear, those fears come
to life as Crumplebump (the funny noises monster), The Final Freak (the math test monster), Big Bad
Boom (the thunderstorm monster), and several other terrifying creatures of the night. The girls help
each other overcome their fears, and with some help from Stephanie's older sister Cathy and her
monster friend Gruntable, the other monsters are banished. Conceived and written by a group of grade
school and high school students, this play is sure to appeal to anyone who's ever been afraid to get
out of bed in the middle of the night.
