by Aurand Harris
Synopsis
Play script.
A delightful joyous dramatization of Beatrix Potter's beloved THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT.
Two suggested sets.
Victorian and animal costumes.
Cast of 6 females, 3 males.
Beatrix Potter, age 13, a poor little rich girl, secluded in her top-floor nursery, creates her own excitement by inventing and illustrating stories about her pet animals.
She imagines an adventure for her favorite pet, Peter Rabbit.
She becomes Peter and acts out an early version of what becomes her famous The Tale of Peter Rabbit.
All the favorite characters appear: Mother Rabbit, Flopsey, Mopsey, Cottontail, the Mouse, the birds, and Mr. McGregor.
Here is a revealing and charming glimpse of Victorian society in contrast to the antics of the uninhibited animal world.
PETER RABBIT AND ME is filled with humor, adventure, colorful characters, and all of the magic of children's theatre.
