Welcome to our Plays to Perform website! We're excited to help you find the perfect show for your next production.
With more than 1,500 brilliant plays in our catalogue, there's a lot to choose from. You can use our Play Finder to focus your search by genre, cast size, age suitability, and more – or check out our New Releases or Most Performed galleries for more suggestions of great shows to perform. And be sure to sign up to our mailing list to be kept up to date on the latest and most exciting releases, plus other production ideas, news, offers and more.
If you already know which play you're interested in performing, you can enquire about its availability via this form.
Please note: the presence of a particular play on our website does not necessarily mean it is currently available for amateur performance. Please always check the availability of rights before making any commitments for your production!
Tamara has been working at NHB since 2003. She can advise you on any aspect of applying for rights, or help you find the perfect play to perform. Get in touch...
Amateur companies can request to read up to three NHB plays at any one time, free of charge.
It's easy to get involved - simply submit your feedback via the Comments Box underneath each of the plays, and we'll get it added to the site for others to read.
This is your site too, so don't be shy about sharing your knowledge and expertise.
