The Apple Kingdom is the play which reads best and
is
suitable
for, as they say, audiences of all ages. It's a fairy tale.
The reason characters suddenly start speaking in verse
periodically
is that it is a musical in disguise.
The Rainbird's Daughter would be excellent in
performance
(something which sadly hasn't happened yet) but does not read
as well as The Apple Kingdom. Also it contains scenes of
extreme violence and is potentially disturbing. Whether it is
unsuitable for younger audiences is something which can only be
determined by any parents concerned.
Stones is a play about two women journalists on a
holiday/assignment
to Scotland. They meet up with a somewhat sinister yet romantic
Scottish thief at the Callanish Standing Stones. It's good in
performance, but reads
the least well of the three.
