The Theatre Maker’s Craft, Confident Schools

One book for the whole department — the head of drama defending curriculum time and the teacher whose Year 9 group has run the same scene four times and made it no better. What theatrical thinking actually is, how it is built from Year 7 to Year 13, and what separates a student who can perform from one who can make, interpret and evaluate theatre on purpose.
