Approximate Playing Time:  30 minutes total

In the tradition of classical fairy tales, two bold stories filled with poetic language and inspiring imagery.  With children alone or with both adult and child actors, these two short plays will tickle your wit and challenge your imagination.  The Troll in the Belfry is the tale of a wicked troll who has taken over a town destroying its spirit, only to be outwitted by two children and an old widow woman. In The Old Beggar Woman, all the mothers and fathers in the village have disappeared in the night and only a strange old beggar woman knows why. Inspired by Van Gogh’s famous painting, “A Starry Night”, the plays are not only perfect for children’s theatre but great for school productions and arts-in-education performance tours.  $10 Single-Use Copyright Fee plus $20 Royalty per Performance for Amateur Theatre.  Professional Theatre Royalties Calculated on Application
