"Patriotic Plays and Pageants for Young People" by Constance D'Arcy Mackay is a collection of one-act plays intended for performance by young audiences, likely written in the early 20th century. The compilation is designed to be used in educational settings, summer camps, and various celebrations, focusing on the youth and lives of American heroes. Each play aims to instill a sense of patriotism and historical awareness among young participants through engaging performances. The beginning of the collection details its purpose and structure, introducing the idea that the plays can be performed individually or as part of larger pageants. The preface emphasizes the educational and entertaining value of these performances, allowing young actors to connect with the emotions of historical figures such as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. The opening also highlights the inclusion of full directions for costumes, music, and dances, setting the stage for a hands-on approach to learning about America's past through theatrical representation.
