Imagine taking the words of
the world's greatest
playwright and making them instantly accessible
to children of all ages. Easy to follow, highly humorous and completely
understandable, Jaw Jabberin' with Shakespeare is opening
doors to higher learning for our children everywhere.
The scene: deep in the Appalachian mountains an "old
timer" sits rocking on the front porch of a rustic cabin.
Children of all ages are gathered about him mesmerized by the
vivid yarn he is spinning...
The players: royalty, peasants, fairies and fools...scorned
women, devious men, gullible commoners and clowns.
The set: battlefields, castles, humble houses, the
woods. An island, the roadside, the Royal court, the market place.
The action: Kingdoms won and lost, history in the making.
Women scorned, husbands vilified, skullduggery abounds. Magic,
mystery and mayhem.
It is my belief that everyone should have the opportunity to experience
the richness and wisdom of William Shakespeare. From middle school
to University, the Jaw Jabberin' series will bring Shakespeare
out of the 16th century, plop him on the front porch "for
a spell", and captivate for a lifetime.
From children of age ten to professional actors the comments have
been that after listening to the Jaw Jabberin' series they now
are able to understand the
action and plot of Shakespeare's plays on stage as never before.
This light hearted telling of the stories leaves the audience
much wiser and well entertained.
