WALDEN PLAY

For those unable to produce an actual play, we suggest a simpler "play reading" (where actors hold the script while presenting their lines) or you can watch the Walden play as a group on YouTube or the DVD. For public groups over 20 people, we provide FREE clearance forms to show the film. The DVD comes with the entire Walden play as broadcast on public TV stations and movie theaters nationwide plus the complete lesson plan... "Walden: The Ballad of Thoreau" is a combination documentary and theatrical play set during the final two days Henry David Thoreau spent in his cabin before leaving Walden Pond. The documentary that bookends the film is a look at the life of Henry David Thoreau and filmed at Walden Pond at the actual cabin site in the woods. The Walden Play introduces audiences to the life and words of Henry David Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson. The dialogue of Thoreau and Emerson are actual quotes taken from their literary work.
