What
is
a
play?
A
play
is
a
story
about
different
characters.
Characters
can
be
people,
animals,
or
objects.
It
just
depends
on
what
the
story
is
about.
Plays
usually
take
place
on
a
stage
in
front
of
an
audience.
Let’s
read
an
example
of
a
play!
“Little
Orphan
Annie”
This
is
a
play
about
the
children
living
in
an
orphanage.
Annie
always
has
to
do
the
work
for
the
other
children,
but
she
likes
to
scare
them
to
get
revenge.
When
we
read
a
play,
we
only
read
the
lines.
The
parts
in
blue
are
actions,
something
we
do,
but
do
not
say
out
loud.
