5.0 out of 5 stars
the book was useful in my classess in school.,
By A Customer
This review is from: 24 Favorite One Act Plays (Paperback)
The book was very cool. In fact it was so kooky that I could not put it down. I was able to use it in all of my eighth grade classess. I am a language arts teacher at Turlock Junior High, and it was extremly easy to find a 'cool' play that related to what we were learning at the time. I have been using this book for about 10 years now, and I have never grown old of it. My class this year has recently used it to put on a few short plays for the rest of the school.

Really Useful,
By MB-F (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 24 Favorite One Act Plays (Paperback)
I've had this book thrust upon me as a student over the past 7 years in middle and high school from Drama, English and Language teachers. It is a really good book- the plays vary from being abstract and bizarre to being thoughtful and introspective. If you're a student looking for a good quick play, a teacher looking for something to get your students to do, if you're just looking for some quick quirky one act plays- this is it.Totally worth it!
