TitleShort Plays for Spanish Speakers
Body
A recent request on the FLTEACH listserv for recommended plays for native Spanish speakers received the following suggestions. These might be useful for advanced learners as well.

The Wizard of Oz in Spanish is great (my daughter performed it 4 months ago). It lasts about 15 minutes when all is said and done, and you can do some wonderful props and have excellent costumes.

How about El delantal blanco?

Heinle and Heinle have a book by Dauster and Lyday called "En un acto". Most of the plays are fairly straightfoward and easy for advanced students or native speakers to read. They have, however fairly interesting themes.

A few weeks ago I mentioned that I would send the name of a book of mini-plays. The book is called MIGHTY MINI-PLAYS FOR THE SPANISH CLASSROOM by Patti Lozano. I used some of them with my Spanish-speaker classes a few years ago. The book contains 12 short humorous plays that range from 3 to 8 participants. The website given in the back is http://www.dololanguages.com - ISBN #0-9650980-2-8.
