The kit came in an envelope, tucked in such a way as to fully contain its components and tied shut with an attached maroon ribbon. Four half-sized script books contained the full text of the three plays, done in five acts (three acts for Molly's play). The last page in the scripts included acting tips such as speaking clearly and stage presence. Each play was written in such a way as to be able to be performed in roughly twenty minutes and could include a ten-minute intermission. A single play was written with six parts. However, there were always two characters that could be doubled up, thus allowing for only four people to perform the entire play.

An included Director's Guide contained factual information about plays and acting in the three eras. There were synopsizes for each play, the scene settings, simple tips for setting the stage and mood with music, how to include stage hands, and advertising and taking tickets. A list of characters, costume ideas, props, and tips for getting into character was also included. While it was possible to memorize the scripts' lines, it was mentioned that it was okay to simply read from the scripts. For legal reasons, the theater kit included text in the Director's Guide that stated the plays could be performed without royalties by young people at home, schools and nonprofit organizations (provided that the latter two will not charge admission). Any other performance rights are strictly reserved and any inquiries for rights should be addressed to the Book Editor at American Girl. The set was discontinued in 1994 as by then individual Theater Kits for other Historical Characters had been released.
