A Load of Rubbish - Play by Sue Gordon
Performance by Thurso Junior Players, Winner of SCDA One Act Play Festival Highland Division Intermediate Section, 2007 |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 0. Minimum Female roles = 0. Minimum total with doubling = 20. Minimum total without doubling = 24. Chorus. The characters described as 'a few small pieces of fruit and veg' play a chorus role. Their numbers are very flexible. The characters are inanimate objects, so gender is flexible! |

| Music | None. |
| Style | One-act large-cast play (probably a whole school class) for kids. A comedy with a strong ecological message. Little in the way of set or props - mostly characters instead of props! (The Producer's copy of the script includes costume suggestions!) |
| Synopsis | Life on an overspill rubbish dump takes a philosophical turn, with items of garbage asking 'why are we here?' |

Unfortunately the fool-proof schemes they come up with are identical, leading to a great deal of confusion and the disappearance of the money they were targeting. |
