"We've
done 2 of your scripts over the
past 2 years (The
Wizard of Oz, and this year, Peter
Pan), and I can't tell you how
much I appreciate
what you do. We cast 1st
through 5th grade students, in
an inner-city
school, all second
language learners, and they loved
it. Your scripts are well-paced,
clear,
and fun for all.
Our first year we had 4 performances for about an audience
of 300 total. This year, after
word got out, we had over
1,000 people see our play.
Thanks again for the great
scripts, and we'll see what we
do next year!"
Greg
Tutt, Teacher, Buford Elementary, Lennox, CA
"We just finished our summer drama camp. Your
children's play, Wizard
of Oz, made our work SO
much easier!!! My high
school drama club plan and put these camps
into action, and they really
appreciated the script
and guide.
Splitting the parts so that several
kids could play the various parts
was just a God-send....no
crying because they didn't get
to be Dorothy! I was afraid that we would not be able to pull
off the show because our
camp is just one week long.
But my little troupers pulled it off beautifully! Thank
you SO much for your program.
I'll be ordering another one for next summer's camp!"

"Thank you for such a wonderful children's script.
Our performance was SPECTACULAR!
A first grader played Dorothy, and the way the lines
were written really helped her
to learn them well. I would ABSOLUTELY
purchase from you again - for the quality
of your plays
and your personal
helpfulness.
To quote an audience member from our play, 'That
was the best thing this school has ever done! We need more of that here!'
Thanks for making it a magical
evening for
my kids."

Teachers,
this children's
play, The
Wizard of Oz is
written just for you and your students.
It is a faithful telling of the story you know so well,
simplified for
young performers. Without music, this
script fits well in your curriculum and
your schedule. Best of all, it's lots
of fun for everyone!
Just
for Kids: Speeches
and vocabulary are appropriate for child performers ages 6 - 14.
Simple dialogue, easy for kids to memorize!
A
Flexible Cast of 25
Students: Easily
adapted for a smaller or larger cast. Every role has at
least
three spoken lines!
Dorothy
can
be played by up to 6 girls to ensure that no one child is the "star".
About
45-50
minutes long: Long
enough to be a substantial project and short enough to accommodate
your teaching
schedule.
Easy
costumes and scenery: Many
suggestions on how to create or find what you need to make a
great looking production
without breaking your budget!

the
children were fabulous! We
had so much fun! Thank
you! Thank you! The

and has asked us to perform for the
school tomorrow!"

"I
thought you might like some pictures from my first
grade class production of The
Wizard of Oz. It was absolutely
a wonderful experience from
beginning to end. I was an inclusion teacher so there were many special
needs students in my class.
The
script was wonderful
and easy to adapt so that everyone
could participate and met with
success. I've already ordered Alice
In Wonderland for next year!"

"I
work at a school with children who have learning disabilities and
last year we
performed the children's play Wizard of Oz.
The teachers
and parents were amazed at what a great
job these kids did. To tell you
the truth I was amazed.
Some have trouble reading but with help they
could remember all their lines.
We had parents
that were crying because they
were so happy for their child."
