Two school monitors, one mission: to bring in Jamie Ryan.

This is a play about the pitfalls, predicaments and perils of a place we call High School. So, naturally, it’s an ideal play for secondary school students, whether it’s in the classroom or on the stage! With its large, flexible cast of typical high school characters, Finding Jamie Ryan comically captures the mishaps and absurdities of school life.

The Principal has given Corey and Quinton a job to do but can they succeed before the day is out? Their journey takes them across the school from Woodwork to Band Practice, and onto the School Production Rehearsal, where there’s one drama after another. Along the way, they are faced with grumpy teachers, an exchange student who can’t speak English and a boy who’ll fight anything that moves. Finally they find the student they are looking for. Or is he?

From the writer of Four Funerals and a Wedding here is another great classroom or stage script suitable for junior to middle-high school students that has twenty-three characters, with room to add extras if you wish. Some roles can be either male or female and many can be doubled up, so you can perform the play with as few as fourteen actors or as many as you like!
