Abstract: A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh is a classic known the world over as a collection of delightfully appealing stories for children and adults alike. These stories have been adapted into play form for children by Kristin Sergei and set to music by Allan Jay Friedman. Within the contents of this thesis, the author purports to present a pre-production analysis of the play, a prompt book as a record of the production and a post-production evaluation and summary. Discussion of the life of A. A. Milne, his writing style and pertinent critical comments about it, his creation of Winnie-the- Pooh and discussion of the Pooh books themselves is essential to an understanding of the play, Winnie-the-Pooh. Its characters, although well-defined, cannot be adequately assessed without study of the Milne originals. Therefore, a sizeable portion of Chapter I in this thesis is devoted to the aforesaid discussion and study.
