Not for elementary students, but Linda Daughtery's "Secret Life of Girls" is a powerful play about girls and their cyber bullying (texting and email), as well as verbal (backstabbing) abuse. It also shows the result of bullying. It's very good for the 13-18 age group if anyone is intersted. Linda Daugherty is an incredibly kind playwright who emailed me personal along our jounrey last fall when we performed for our school district. She was so good about answering questions via email, and offering cast support and encouragement when we were performing. There are two versions, and both have a bit of language. We were told by the ISD that we had to clean up our version, and Ms. Daugherty was very supportive about that situation, saying the message was more important than cutting a few bad words.

It was a powerful play that changed some hearts and lives.
