Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow presents an updated version of a well-known fairy tale. The script can be used for traditional Readers’ Theater, Adapted Readers’ Theater, or even puppetry. This guide includes each character’s ATOS reading level, ranging from 0 to 6.1, printable props, a Readers’ Theater Rules poster, and tips for Adapted Readers’ Theater props, makeup, and costumes—everything you need to enhance your Readers’ Theater production.
