It is always challenging to find the perfect play. Here are a few sites you can check on the web to purchase plays for your students. I have personally used Pioneer Drama. The other 2 listed I have not used so I can’t vouch for their delivery system. At this point in the year, I would recommend getting them shipped express post as all these companies are from the States.  I will update this list as I discover Canadian companies specializing in drama resources.
