Short and Solo Stage Forms

Dramatic works defined by their small scale, including the one-act play that has only a single act and the choreopoem that joins poetry, dance, music and song. A genre belongs here when its cited article describes it as a short, solo or intimate stage piece. It excludes full length plays in several acts. The group is organised by form and tradition so that a reader can compare related genres side by side.
