Southern Fried Cracker Tales
by Judith Baker Kase (Judith Kase-Polisini)

Play script adapted from Southern folk tales, this emerges as a remarkably playable story theatre production, with music, dance and mime.

Six to twelve-plus roles - - adults or children (2 males required).

Ideal for touring.

Simple unit set.

Folk dance costumes.

Music score available from the publisher, www.applays.com.

Approx.

running time: 45 min.

Storytellers introduce the humorous Daddy Mention and Sourdough Gus, a mysterious Great Conjur Alligator Man of Florida, an absurd Talking Mule, the scatterbrained Georgia Pine Wood Peddler, a sinister Mister Fox, the droll Twist Mouth Family, and a ludicrous Pudding That Broke Up the Preaching.

Producers may select from among stories unified by folk dances.

Works equally well with school-aged actors as well as adults.
