Preface
The original script for the play Roswell 1947 was written over a period of two or more years. I wrote the play as I was looking for an appropriate play for my students in a psychiatric rehabilitation unit that was formerly my place of work. I had a hard time finding anything that I thought might capture and maintain he interest of my students. As I didn't have time for a lot of research I decided to write my own play. As things turned out this play was very popular with the majority of my students.
Quite by accident this play quickly became a comedy. The more I wrote the sillier the story became. I found myself laughing out loud as I wrote major portions of the play. In a word this play is for entertainment only. Yes, it did increase the reading skills of many of my students but this was actually a byproduct of the fun we had reading and performing Roswell 1947. In summary this story is pure fiction and is not meant to be taken seriously. I hope that you will enjoy the newly revised edition of the play. Have fun with it.
