Pioneer
Drama Service has published Insomniac Society. In this youth one-act, nightmare-prone
Poppy has a solution to the soul-crushing loneliness that teenage insomniacs
face when they are confined to their bedrooms for nights that seem like they
will never end. She has created the Insomniac Society, a group chat where the sleepless can share their frustrations until their alarms go
off. Members-to-be must pass Poppy’s
test to prove that they are who they claim and must adhere to her strict
internet safety rules. When Poppy finds herself completely alone one bleak
restless night, the solitude is too much for her. She lets a suspicious
character join. The new recruit turns out to be Poppy’s younger sibling who is
intent on telling Mom and shutting down her site. With a cast of entirely
teenage characters, this fifty-minute dark comedy is well-suited for Thespian
One-Act Play Competition, high school production and teen theatre camp. To find
