ArtReach's script 'The Red Badge of Courage' brings Stephen Crane's Civil War Classic to life! Excellent for Middle School, High School and young audiences! Today's young audiences can relate to young Henry as he struggles with his conscience. Excellent drama for Middle Schools and High Schools. Producers, this play was professionally developed for Middle School and High School Audiences, especially for School Touring. It requires little tech; benches, flags and a nice background that is detailed in the script.
