Mimsy the Fairy - A Puppet Show
This is a puppet show I wrote for a Kindergarten girl's birthday party. Many of the jokes were written with an adult audience in mind, so it would be more appropriate for a setting with adults and their children than a classroom setting. If you are interested in seeing a performance of this puppet show, then visit Mimsy the Fairy Princess on Vimeo or google "Mimsy the Fairy Princess." Our performance lasted about 15 minutes.

The Principal's New Clothes - Reader's Theater for the Entire Class!
This reader's theater is for the entire class! You will need at least 11 students but more is always better. This ties into my other twisted fairy tales except that it was written to do as a class. I split my class into two groups and both groups practice. When we perform we discuss what things we liked about each group. I use this to introduce the small group reader's theaters I have them do the rest of the year. I have also come back to the script at the end of the year to perform in front of
