The late Ross, who taught fifth grade, and Durgin, an artist and editor, offer a reprint (first published in 1998) of their guide for teachers and others to producing musicals with children
ages nine to 13. In addition to the benefits of putting on a production and how to work with other teachers and parents, they cover such aspects as choosing and adapting a script, finances and
organization, auditions and casting, rehearsals, directing, music, dance, costumes and makeup, scenery, backstage dynamics, programs and photos, the performance, and tours. Annotation 穢2012
