{"product_id":"introduction-to-readers-theatre-gerald-lee-ratliff-9781566080538","title":"Introduction to Readers Theatre","description":"\u003cp\u003eToday's readers theatre is engaged in the exciting pursuit of a more contemporary self-definition, and some of the more theatrical trends of classroom performance are reflected in this book of basic practices and principles. The focus here is on translating primary readers theatre principles into classroom performance practices that feature performers artistically transforming literary figures or images into flesh-and-blood character portraits and visual pictures. This current, more theatrical approach is developed through the six chapters: Introduction to Readers Theatre, Selecting and Analyzing Literature, Adapting Literature, Playing Space and Staging, Classroom Exercises, and Sample Performance Scripts. This fine text includes many royalty-free script adaptations for performers and audiences of all ages as well as an extensive listing of source material ideas to further develop your own readers theatre.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (312 pages, 51\/2 x 81\/2, paperback)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerald Lee Ratliff\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1566080533\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781566080538\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Meriwether Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.54h x 5.56w x 0.77d","brand":"Gerald Lee Ratliff","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985152704767,"sku":"9781566080538","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ac950b09-cd61-4b86-8277-452ac0b7a55e.jpg?v=1683275861","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/introduction-to-readers-theatre-gerald-lee-ratliff-9781566080538","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
