One Act Children's Play - The Red Badge of Courage

In Stephen Crane's The Red Badge of Courage a young man faces war for the first time. Will he fight bravely and honorably, or will he run away?

This Small Cast Touring One Act Play presents

It is faithful to the novel's story and language as Crane wrote it.

 Producers, this play was professionally developed for Middle School and High School Audiences, especially for School Touring.  It requires little tech; benches, flags and a nice background that is detailed in the script.  Easy to book, principals and teachers love the educational ties-in that make your Study Guide look great.  It really holds an audience's attention and your actors will love the dramatic scenes that showcase their talent!
