Pupils will be encouraged to set an example in their community by showing how small actions can help to create big changes and improvements to the environment.
Councillor Martin Tett, chairman of the joint waste committee for Buckinghamshire said the play, will be targeting children aged five to 11 to help them understand why dropping litter is damaging to the environment.
Cllr Tett said: "This play is a fun way of getting across a very important message to children."
This follow's Wycombe District Council's decision to introduce £75 on-the-spot fines to anyone found dropping litter.
