What Others Are Saying "The book is an amazing introduction to the Bard, his works and environment...a way to overcome literacy and dramatic stage fright that can open many doors..." R. Thad Taylor, President Shakespeare Society of America, Inc. Los Angeles, CA "Hello! I just want to thank you for producing your one hour scripts of Shakespeare! I ordered 40 TWELFTH NIGHT, and used them to teach three groups of children. Each group had eight one-hour sessions together, plus what practicing they did at home. This week we put on the three performances for family and friends and they were all a smashing success!! "We had groups of highschoolers, junior highers, and 4th-6th graders. All the kids memorized their lines and learned their acting parts and pulled it off...We could NEVER have done the whole play. PLUS we had a blast, and I am sure the kids will never forget their time together, all they learned about Shakespeare, and the story of TWELFTH NIGHT. Thank you...we are hoping to do another one next fall. Or sooner. Thanks again, be encouraged. Love, Diane Stewart, Waukesha, WI
