Let's Perform!

Poems and Scripts with Performance Tips

Picture

​Let's Perform! Monologues, duologues and poems for children to perform, is Cath’s Key Stage 2 literacy and drama book.

In the past, Cath
struggled to find up-to-date drama texts that primary children could relate to, so she began writing her own performance pieces based on the children she encountered every day and their real feelings and experiences.
This new book assembles all the monologues, duologues and performance poetry that Cath has developed with primary children in schools, assemblies and drama festivals.
​This is a fun, engaging and educational collection, that will give both creative practitioners and students between 7 and 11, fresh performance-based material to work with.



In this video from Bloomsbury, you can join Cath Howe and the children of Fern Hill Primary School as they perform scripts and poems from Let's Perform!
