New International Plays for Young Audiences - Plays of Cultural Conflict

Professors and teachers have a great need to introduce their students to experiences outside of their normal realm of existence. Studying varied cultures and societies through theatre brings the events of foreign worlds to Western students in a format that is easily understood. Roger Ellis' other collections of multicultural and international plays and scenes have been extremely popular for several years due to a renewed interest in cultural diversity. This unique anthology of complete plays represents several countries including Croatia, Italy, Argentina, New Zealand (Maori), Australia and Canada. The plays are specifically aimed at young audiences and each has a significant number of roles for young actors. Great for literary, speech and drama classes or theatrical applications. Plays include: Turtle Island Blues by William Borden, Mutiny in Crazyland by Mirjana Buljan, BOOM by Patti Fraser and Julie Salverson, Crying for Time by Ros Gardner, Carrying the Calf by Shirley Barrie, Lliford Mill by Neil Duffield, Rolmata by Riwia Brown and many more.
