10 Short Plays to Adapt into Short Films

10 Short Plays to Adapt into Short Films offers filmmakers and creators alike to use Monologue Blogger scripts for non-commercial projects.

Here are 10 new 1 act play scripts we feel have great potential when it comes to film adaptation.

The scripts shared here are really good for modest budgets, scripts that are mostly one location based with two to four characters at most.

We encourage you to read through our scene and monologue material before deciding what’s best for your own creative needs.
