What We Offer

Perusal Scripts

To help you select the perfect show, you may purchase a single copy of any play. Big Dog scripts feature full-color glossy covers and are printed on eco-friendly paper certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

Prompt Books for Directors

The director’s prompt book is an 8½” x 11” spiral-bound script with extra-wide margins and a folder to stuff notes. Pages are printed on one side only to provide plenty of room for cues and blocking. Prompt books feature full-color glossy covers and are printed on paper certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

Play Packs

Play Packs save you money! They include scripts for cast and crew, a director’s prompt book, 50 color personalized 8½” x 11” play posters, and 1 performance royalty.
