John Crocker, children's writer, in Athens
Mar. 27 A British Writer In Athens. John Crocker, writer of a musical play for children named Children In Robin's Woods'. John Crocker is one of the best known pedagogue-writers of England. He takes up well known stories and arranges them into musicals for children, having in mind that children must not only amuse themselves but also educate, without underestimating their intelligence. he believes that children must conduct the play, give their opinion, sing with the stars and go on the stage and take an active part during the play. John Crocker achieves this with a great mastery, in such a way that the play becomes a true fair, for small children and also for the big, a musical fair, with dancing and mixture of colours on the stage so that all children enjoy it every minute of it without getting bored
