These seven plays feature humans and birds-grackles. Our grackles are concerned for their own survival, but they also want what's best for human beings. Themes of bullying, safety, health and well-being appear in the plays, with recognition of the importance of family for support, protection and comfort. Grackles may be alert to problems, but humans are the necessary and required element for their solutions. These plays are suitable for young students and teens, and the material would be useful in drama programs and acting training in schools, camps, and children's theatre workshops.
