readers theater in developing speaking skills of EFL secondary school
students and reducing their speaking anxiety. The sample of the study
consisted of fifty-five first year secondary school at El- Lozy Secondary
School for girls in Damietta Governorate. The two group quasiexperimental design, based on pre-post, non- equivalent control group
design was used. The instruments of the study included a speaking skills
test, a speaking skills rubric, and a speaking anxiety scale. The results of

speaking skills of EFL secondary school students and reduced their
speaking anxiety. On the other hand, there were no statistically
