Theatre for Children—Kid Stuff, or Theatre?

Challenges, observations and philosophy about children's theatre from a creator of an art theatre of world classics from the Bible, the Greeks and Shakespeare. Orlin Corey was no less well-known for his dedication to theatre inclusive of children. At the behest of Sara Spencer, he consented to her selection from his speeches and writings of his convictions, concerns, promises and risks of theatre for children. These reflect his varied and unique experiences around the world and his resolve to wage war against mediocrity in theatre. For children, he offered nothing less than the excellence of art. This voice and vision of a generation ago is now clearly timeless and often prophetic. Softcover. 6 x 9—85 pages.
