The Play Archives
Welcome to THE PLAY ARCHIVES. Your work here begins today. The room is full of dusty tomes that have seen better days, each one containing a playscript.  The plays here come from various time periods and from all around the world. Some of them might come from other worlds and alternative time periods. None of these plays are likely to be familiar at first glance, but as you work shifts at the archive you may focus solely on creating your catalogue or spend time learning as much as you choose about them.
