Real (Scenes And Monlogues For Urban Youth)

Born out of the necessity Pannell recognized during her years of teaching theatre to young people in community centers and public and arts schools, here at last is a collection of monologues and scenes that todays inner-city kids can relate to. Both literally and figuratively, these brief dramatic works speak the language of contemporary pre-teens and teens (ages 8-18), bringing to light the reality of their city lives. Not only for theater instructors and their students, REAL will be useful to counselors, group leaders, teachers working with urban youth
