"The
middle school students at Saint Anthony School in
Kailua, Hawaii just finished wowing
our school,
church, and family community with
your play, The
Little Mermaid.
This is the third play of yours we have produced; we've also done The
Wizard of Oz, and Peter
Pan. Each
play has been a treasure."
Laree
Ott, St. Anthony School, Kailua, Hawaii
Teachers,
our New School
Play, Children's Musical Play,
The Little Mermaid, is
just what you
have been looking for!
Perfect for a flexible,
large cast of
young performers and simple
staging, this
children's musical
adaptation will
definitely be a successful
production for
you, your children, your
students and your school!
We
did The Wizard
of Oz, then Peter
Pan, and this year, The
Little Mermaid. Your
scripts are so great,
simple to use
and adapt, fun for
the kids and the
audiences, and perfectly
geared to use with a young
cast. The audience loved
our production."

"The
children loved The Little Mermaid and so
did the
audiences! I cast
26 children in the roles and they
loved it and we had full
houses. We had so
much fun with it and what makes it extra
special is the
CD
with sound effects and songs!"
Jennifer
Black, Director, Children's Theatre Company, Goderich, Ontario
This
children's musical play includes the
antics of Philippe the French Chef,
salty dog Sailors, sidekicks Slithery
Sirs and comical Castle
Servants. Fun and easy lyrics are
set to familiar tunes such
as Blow the Man Down, Brahms
Lullaby and Alouette. The
CD of background music and sound effects gives
it a professional touch! |

"There
are so many things I love about your plays.
The scripts are funny
and so easy to memorize that even my
students who struggle in English class can be stars
in front of adoring crowds,
and the expanded casts allow my shy
students to blossom without
fear of failure. The scripts also suggest simple
sets, props, and costumes that allow us
to produce joyous,
life-filled plays on a budget that excludes
no one."

you so much for providing such

children's script for us to use

was so easy even for two people
with zero experience.
We had a cast of 90
children, grades K-5th, we had
over 700 people attend!
We had so much fun
and the kids had fans, signed autographs, and simply
had a great time. We never have
experienced something so enjoyable. The
whole community came together to make this production possible."

"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!"
