La vie au Québec au début du XXe siècle - 80883

JANIE CÔTÉ

In the information age, trying to imagine life in the Quebec of 1905 can be rather difficult for youngsters. Why not get them to live a slice of life from the times of their forbears? That is a successful idea proposed by a teacher: six sketches designed to be done separately or gathered together into a more important show. Integration of subject matter guaranteed! Pride and pleasure assured! Most of the short plays require extras (suffragettes, protestors, partisans, etc.).

	10 to 12 years old
	Approximately 60 minutes or 7 to 15 minutes per sketch
	The shortest one: 4 (2 girls, 2 boys) + extras The longest one: 11 (5 girls, 6 boys) + extras
	Political life, the population, the countryside, the city, means of transportation
	Character roles, character study, rhythm
