THE THEATRE OF HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN
is a collection of original
plays written and produced in schools by Creative Educational
Systems. Each play has a playing time of between 10-60 minutes -- perfect
for a school assembly program or a children's theatre production.
The
plays are accompanied by brief essays which highlight the educational
value of the scripts, as well as curriculum suggestions in the areas of
language arts, social studies, mathematics, science, physical education,
art, music and dance. Each play is also followed by production notes
on staging, style, costumes, sets and lighting, properties and sound and
music.
Audiences of young people watching a live play will, because
of its immediate, tangible spontaneous nature, look and listen and
psychologically assimilate: how other people may think and feel,
what possibilities exist in the world beyond their own neighborhoods, the
results of actions made from good and evil intentions, and why people
behave the way they do. Children will inevitably identify with one
character or another and vicariously experience the emotional progression
of that character until the end of the play -- and sometimes, long
after.
Young people participating in the production of a play will
experience all of the above, plus: the internal motivations of the
character they portray, the self-discipline needed to perform successfully
in front of an audience, the dynamics of interpersonal relationships
crucial to the opening of a show, the process of going over the same thing
time and again in the pursuit of excellence, AND instant feedback as to
how well they performed the tasks to which they committed
themselves.
