Eliot's poem The Waste Land encouraging public readings of the poem. Reading aloud helps students understand the voices speaking and provides a more complete experience with this master modernist poem. The scripted poem allows a group to cast and put the best voices to work in service of the lines for audio readings and performances of Eliot's masterwork. The script is perfect for an interactive class project in literature, radio production, and theater, an indispensable aid to introduce all levels of students and audiences to what many consider the most important poem of the twentieth century. Hearing these lines voiced in any number of ways provides a new experience for the listener and performer.
