What does it take to write a play? Where do ideas come from? How are characters and plot points developed? And once those ideas get down on paper, how do they come to life in a theatre the first time the story is produced on a stage? Pursue answers to those questions and more as you hear from playwright Eric Coble and theatre director Julia Flood who are bringing to life the powerful story of Mr. Coble’s newest play for young audiences, “The Girl Who Swallowed a Cactus.” This video is produced by Educate.Today and HEC Media. To find similar videos as well as lesson plans for grades 3-12, view the Educate.Today website at educate.today. See more videos from HEC Media at hecmedia.org.
