In Prime, we meet Princess Dar and Prince Dion, young royals from neighboring kingdoms, who are destined for each other through an arranged marriage. On the eve of the wedding, however, they decide to run away and discover their own futures. Escaping to a nearby valley, they cross paths with disoriented lovers, hot-headed party animals, desperate draft dodgers, and a number-obsessed hermit. Identities are investigated, resources stretched, and every kind of love put to the test. 80-85 minutes. 6 females, 6 males, 6 either. Ideal for high schools, youth theatres, universities and community theatres. Published and performances licensed by YouthPLAYS (www.youthplays.com), publishers of plays for young actors and audiences.
