LM_NETters,

I need your help -- one of my English teachers (9 standard is regular 9th
grade English -- not advanced or honors) is looking for a modern play with a
happy ending.  He would also like it to be multicultural if possible -- here's his
quest

> I'm doing the classic play "Our Town" now. The kids are liking it. It is
> something that has pretty common language, and they enjoy reading aloud
> once in awhile.
>
> How about a modern play to read in 9 standard. I did "Romeo and Juliet,"
> which they liked despite the difficulty with Shakespearean language. It
> would be great to have something with two teens who fall in love
> (both "Romeo" and "Town" have that in common), has some humor, and a
> happy ending. Tragedy rules at the end or "Romeo" and "Town..."

I'll post a hit after Spring Break.

TIA
Terri
