Fever River Puppeteers'
3rd Annual Puppet Playwriting Contest
Tell us a story and we'll turn it into a puppet show! The winner or winners will see their story performed on stage at the Hazel Green Opera House.
HELPFUL HINTS FOR BUDDING PLAYWRIGHTS
A puppet show - like any play or other story - needs:
Characters: Who? A hero, heroes or heroines (good guys) and a villain or villains (bad guys).
Setting: When and where? A time and a place.
Plot: What? How? Suddenly, something happens! And then the good guy does something. Don't just make your puppet characters talk. Make them do stuff. Ending: How it all turns out. Wrap it up.
The Rules
Students in 3rd - 6th grades in the tri-state area are eligible.
One author per story.
Title page- include your name, age, address, phone number.
Put your name on each page.
Make up your own characters and stories, but we want you to work around the theme of "Pirates & Mermaids".
Write neatly or use a computer printer.
Deadline is Friday, Feb. 29, 2008.
