Thank you for your interest. I have used theater games with first graders through adult level and people love to be involved. You can choose games that are non-verbal in nature, for example, WHO STARTED THE MOTION is a great activity that requires little oral communication. Your severe stutterers can get involved and will eventually do more with the verbal end. Last summer we had a severe stutterer in NAME SIX and the group modified the time constraint so this individual could still play the game even though he struggled with naming six items. The group was very aware and simply expanded the time frame...so he could participate. It worked!! Good luc. Pat Gangnon
