LULLAY, a one-act play by Julia Gayden Nelson
This one-act play is designed for social distancing and small casts (3-8 actors recommended), perfect for UIL.
It is about a woman who has a miscarriage late in her pregnancy, and the disasterous fallout that her subsequent mental illness has upon her life.
Theatre departments are encouraged to collaborate heavily with their student set, prop, and costume designers to bring the story to life. While the tale of LULLAY can be told through minimalist design, each theatre department is encouraged to make it their own through the details they choose to put upon the stage.
LULLAY is entirely nonverbal. This unique playwrighting choice gives directors the opportunity to develop stage business and actor interactions in order to tell their version of LULLAY's story. The run time of this play can be anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes, depending on each director's staging choices.
