I found this wonderful little gem for creating drama workshops without the need for scripts, etc.
Act IT Out! 20 Terrific Techniques for Teaching Any Bible Story by Randy L Ritz, Standard Publishing Company, 1999, ISBN 078470919X. (OUT OF PRINT)
Lots of ideas for story dramas (frozen pictures, echo storytelling, sound effect story), Character Dramas (statues, TV personality, ace reporter, See it, Be it) and Theme Dramas (Blind walk, mirrors, group statues, machines).
Includes 20 different activities to use over and over again with virtually any Bible story character, or theme. You'll find step-by-step instructions, illustrations, and wrap-up questions with each activity, with little preparation. These activities will be a terrific addition to any lesson. Before you know it, your students will be clamoring to Act It Out!
