Scenes from a Foreign school production in South Korea.
Coyote's Christmas Carol
Latest News!
I'm always so happy to hear from directors and teachers who have discovered Coyote. In December 2006, Coyote was performed in places as diverse as The Philippines, New York, California, Colorado, and South Korea. I've had enthusiastic response from teachers and directors from New Zealand, Canada, Mexico, Japan, China, and India. It means so much to me.
I'm always asking directors to send photos of their productions that I can share here. I know it's a lot of extra work to choose and send me some photos, and then to ask permission of the actors so I understand when directors don't get around to it. But I do have a few I can share, and hopefully I'll get more in the future. I'm also including some of my favorite emails. Enjoy!
Scenes from a Foreign school production in South Korea.
Oh, thank you so much! The
kids and I had great fun, and I believe my friend and ESL teacher, Meg, sent you
an email asking of the "Spanish Edition" if it even exists. We share two boys
from Mexico who will participate in the play, but they speak no English. It
was sweet feeling the excitement in the air of the classroom today as they began
to practice. We laughed a lot! It's just great Thanks. In appreciation,

My kids
are reading your play in my class now as part of our 9th grade English Language Arts curriculum, and they enjoy the humor and how closely it matches the Dickens
story. I'm learning a lot of Spanish too! I plan on showing A Christmas Carol
movie next week, and having the kids write comparative essays on the two
versions. Thanks!

As the
conclusion, we did it well... the production this year was different with your
"Coyote's Christmas Carol" that we all had positive attitude towards the
production... We made one man play all the roles that other spirits did... As
the result, I, playing the part of Scrooge, won the best actor prize in the
contest. I cried during the play and mainly focused on the theme...
