Best Australian One-Act Plays is a 1937 collection of Australian one-act plays. It was published at a time when Australian playwriting was relatively rare. Twenty one plays were selected out of 200 by William Moore and T. Inglis Moore.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

The Sydney Morning Herald called it an "important volume" and the plays "natural, sincere, and dramatically effective. They make pleasant reading, and should pave the way to an annual collection.'[6]
