Quintet: Five Lively Plays for Kids (Grades 4-6)

                               

    Each of these lively plays is based upon a familiar myth, legend, or fairy tale. Each one has many "big parts" rather than a single staring role, as well as numerous "supporting roles" which allow even the shyest of young thespians to enjoy a share of the limelight. Many include original songs, and there are plentiful suggestions for costumes, props, and staging.

The Cotton Blend Horse - a merry spoof based upon the legend of the Trojan Horse

Joe Knight and the Seven Serfs - a comic version of Snow White set in medieval times, complete with dragon (a vegetarian!)

The Hatfelds and the McCoos - the children of two feuding families teach their elders a lesson about the perils of prejudice

Beulah and the Feast - Beulah, like the more-famous Beauty, discovers that good things can be hidden behind the ugliest of exteriors

Cindie Ellis - an orphaned girl uses her wits to succeed in the computer age
