Description
Chronologically continuing from where its predecessor left off, this guide provides detailed plot summaries and critical evaluations of plays (in anthologies and separately published) that can be produced by or for children and young adults (ages 5-18). Included for each of the 2,158 plays are: a complete plot summary, grade level indicator, critical evaluation and recommendation (including negative recommendations), cast analysis, setting description, playing time, royalty, detailed subjects, play type designation, and full source information. The plays are thoroughly indexed by subject and play type, playing time, cast, publisher (including publisher addresses), original title (if the play is an adaptation) and author, and grade level. All types of plays are reviewed here, including full length plays, playlets, choral readings, fables, cantatas, puppet plays, sketches curtain raisers, rap narratives, kabuki plays, religious plays, Bible plays, participation plays, pantomimes, scenes, monologues, dialogues, duologues, creative dramatic pieces, television spots, musical reviews, readers' theater pieces, round-table-readings, and skits.
