Description
The value of drama in the classroom for educational depth and social unity is well known, but teachers in lower school and middle school can sometimes struggle to find suitable play scripts for their classes, especially smaller classes.
This book offers three inventive plays, based on classic stories (Robin Hood, The Philosopher's Stone, The Silver Shoes) which work for small casts, and which bring the audience into the action. Even larger classes will enjoy the humour and creativity of the scripts.
