But bottom of the all-time list/ Of Shakespeare's not-so-greatest hits/ The play which always fails to please/ The poor, unfortunate Pericles./ But before you stand and leave you a seat/ I have to say our play's a feat/ Of editing and derring-do / To bring only the best to you/ In forty minutes, not one sec more, / Your jaws will be upon the floor.The Silly Shakespeare for Students edition of Shakespeare's Pericles simplifies the famous play without dumbing it down. It's perfect for introducing students to the Bard and helping English Language Learners practice speaking and oracy skills while grappling with the classics. Author Paul Leonard Murray, director of the Belgrade English Language Theater, has cut the play down to an hour or so and made the language more accessible. But he's kept all the funny parts! Not only that, the whole thing is written in rhyming couplets. Put the yay in traged-yay!Production notes and a summary of the play make putting on Shakespeare easy and fun, even if you've never done drama in class before! Looking for something different for drama club, student theater, or speaking class? Want to spice up your literature or reading class and give students a new appreciation for Shakespeare? This version of Pericles is for you!
