Ten unforgettable short plays. One powerful collection.
Short Takes, Long Shadows is a dynamic anthology of ten-minute plays by Rick Regan-each a compact dramatic gem packed with character, conflict, and emotional resonance. From a lonely man tuning his radio to ghostly voices from the past, to a Midwestern sheriff chasing a bank robber who just wants free healthcare, these plays capture the humor, heartbreak, and humanity of everyday people caught in extraordinary moments.
Whether you're a director programming a festival, an actor looking for fresh scenes, or a reader who loves smart, character-driven storytelling, this collection offers:
10 stage-ready short plays
Small casts and flexible settings
Roles for a range of ages and performance levels
A mix of comedy, drama, satire, and magical realism
Ideal material for festivals, classrooms, showcases, and scene study
These are plays that invite laughter, reflection, and conversation. Short in form, but long in emotional reach.
