Most work with young people in groups, large and small. Story Theatre to the rescue! School librarian and storyteller Barbara McBride-Smith calls this art form a \"near-perfect vehicle for teaching folks of all ages how to tell stories.\" In \u003ci\u003eTell It Together\u003c\/i\u003e, McBride-Smith briefly discusses her approach to Story Theatre (she describes it as Readers Theatre on steroids). She even shows readers how to develop their own scripts - on their own or as a group project. But the real heart of this book is twenty-three tellable stories scripted for groups of performers to tell together. The scripts call for five to fifteen cast members and are designed for nine- to twelve-year-olds, though many are also appropriate for teens. Barbara McBride-Smith says learning to tell stories should be active, energizing, open-ended, and painless for both the budding performer and the coach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara McBride-Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0874836557\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780874836554\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e August House Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/28\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.26h x 7.28w x 0.76d","brand":"Barbara McBride-Smith","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48443732361471,"sku":"9780874836554","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4c0db345-808b-469a-a17f-e9d34fdd44f8.jpg?v=1777207460","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tell-it-together-barbara-mcbride-smith-9780874836554","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
