Second edition, revised. Many consider Max Bush to be the fountainhead of the renaissance in playwriting for young audiences. His sensitivity to current themes and the modern idiom infuses a contemporary appeal into all of his works. The ten full-length plays in this drama book are adaptations of classics, heroic fantasy adventures, and dramas dealing with social and psychological issues for youngsters. All of the plays included have been successfully produced by community, educational, and professional theatre companies. Many of the plays have the prestige of regional and national awards.
