Kim Arthur and the Nerds of the Round Table




6M,7F. One-Act (30 min), A book-smart girl removes a mysterious "motherboard from the stone" and becomes queen of Game-A-Lot, where she and her fellow nerds invent the greatest video game of all time, in this hilarious spoof of the King Arthur legend.

  • Top 10 Finalist in Moonlit Wings Playwriting Competition, 2016
  • Commissioned by Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, GA, 2015
  • Featured Script on New Play Exchange, February 16, 2025

"Thank you for writing such a fun and funny script!" (The Cast, Crew, and Families of the Junior Players, 2015)


"I've just read your play and love it... That is just what we are looking for. The title is perfect, too." (Steven W Rogers, Infinity Stage, 2016)


"KIM ARTHUR AND THE NERDS OF THE ROUND TABLE is great!!! I'm planning on doing it this fall at Cornerstone School." (Mary Claire Klooster, Cornerstone School, 2016)


"This is a sweet riff on video games borrowing cleverly from the King Arthur tale. The play is geared at young performers and all roles offer young thespians a chance to develop character while having fun onstage. I could see this being very popular in middle schools. It could provoke some interesting discussions regarding the constant stereotyping of "nerd" and "cool" so rampant at that age." (Claudia Haas, New Play Exchange, 2018)


"It was absolutely delightful! Jordanne and I were so impressed with the acting, the professionalism, timing, humor, and the story. Two enthusiastic thumbs up! Thoroughly entertaining! (Kelly and Jordanne, audience members, 2016)


"The play was funny and clever and well put together." (Anonymous audience member, Cornerstone School, 2016)


"I really enjoy this playwright and writer, Daniel Guyton. He thinks, and writes, outside the box. If you're looking for material to read or perform, look no further. You'll become better for doing it!" (Lisa Soland, playwright, 2017)
