I suggest you have the kids write one. They can use their strength inthe language to write it, come up with their own story line, and put it down in English words. Then you can help them correct it, and then practice the play. In this way, they are not just memorizing a play, but actually using their command of the English language to translate, etc.
And if that doesn't work, the Mikado is always a good bet in English OR Japanese. ;-) K'aya K'ama Gerald Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.geocities.com/rameumptom/ Freedom Forever Cousin Bill: Attempt to start new thread #3. As many of you know, I reside in Japan, making my living by babysitting kids ... I mean teaching kids English lessons. -- One thing I would like to try to do is put on a program for these kids' parents to make them think that I'm actually doing some work. I know that ELF and Tom Matkin have made reference to being in various dramatic productions. I'm sure there are probably others as well. Does anyone here have any ideas on where I could find simple plays (the operative word being "simple") that these kids with little English experience could learn and perform? These would NOT by LDS-central, though for little kids I don't suppose there would be anything too weird. I think my attempt to start a new thread is really stretching it now.
