What are great, super dramatic boy/girl or boy/boy duet scenes from straight plays written 1900 or later? Ideally something really moving or intense! Thanks!

I don't have a specific response, but your post made me think of the Dramatic Duet or Duet Interpretation category in high school forensics (speech team) competitions, something I performed in long ago.  Playing around with different Google search terms likely would yield a decent list of popular or award-winning scenes/shows.

There are literally thousands.  What ages/types are you looking for?

Thank you all! I completely forgot to list the age range, ideally the 15-30ish range. These have all been super helpful and I'll be sure to look into them more!!

Don't forget you can also cast genderblind, colorblind, ageblind... this can expand your scope even further.

I think the scene between the Gentleman Caller and Laura from the Glass Menagerie is a wonderful scene.  Also, I absolutely love the final scene from Butterflies are Free.  Good Luck!!!
