A variety of stories from the pens of classical and contemporary writers, journalists and playwrights have been adapted for Readers Theatre performance in this new collection of scripts by a nationally-known authority on the subject. The success of Readers Theatre proves you don`t need scenery or costumes to create a stirring dramatic performance. Sometimes called theatre of the imagination , Readers Theatre communicates in a style similar to the golden days of radio theatre. Its ease of performance makes these scripts ideal for the drama classroom. Sample titles include: The Tooth Fairy Who Didn`t Have Any Teeth, The Taming of the Shrew, Sire de Maletroit`s Door, The Wind in the Willows and Where Have All the Flowers Gone? Included is a section defining Readers Theatre as a performance art.
