Cathy -
I once attended a workshop on using theatre in literacy programs. As part of
the workshop, I obtained a manual on putting together a literacy theatre.
This manual gave good suggestions for scripts and story lines. In the book,
it says to write to the following person for more information:
Dorothy Oliver
New Hampshire Dept. of Education
101 Pleasant St.
Concord, NH 03301

I hope this helps!

Has anyone used reader's theatre to improve reading fluency for adult
ESL students?
Can you recommend any good scripts?
