How do you get young adults excited and engaged with books? Get
them onstage! Readers Theatre is a stage presentation during which
participants read from scripts, acting out the book's story using
voice and facial expressions. It offers educators an innovative
opportunity to acquaint young people with quality literature, test
their grasp of English grammar, develop their public speaking
skills, and learn about teamwork in an activity that is
entertaining as it is educational. Elizabeth A. Poe, creator of
many Readers Theatre programs, explains how to create successful
programs, offering: Ways librarians can link basic educational
goals with appreciation of good literature, A bibliography of books
suggested for their Readers Theatre potential, with examples of
texts converted into scripts and Core programming ideas that can be
adapted for use across different age levels. Poe's book helps youth
services librarians get students out from behind their desks and
onto the stage by writing their own scripts based on children's
literature.
