Great Variety
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I love all of the different types of plays. I am using the second section of plays for children. The narration is perfect, and the lines are often funny. My students love the play, "How the First Letter Was Written." It's a great source.
A Great Resource for Staging Plays with Kids
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This collection provides a good mix of large and small group plays, including The Wizard of Oz, Treasure Island and The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. It might not be great theater, but it gave the elementary school kids I was working with a chance to perform a familiar story without a million rehearsals. The lines are manageable and the kids weren't put off by having to learn long speeches.
