Teaching Playwrighting is written by Paul Gardiner and is a book of useful exercises that would work well in any secondary drama classroom. The book opens with an explanation of how playwriting can offer students a voice and how teaching playwrighting can help students develop skills to find this voice. There is a handy summary at the end of each section comprised of bullet points that outline key points.
The book is accessible and easy to apply and use in practice. The second part opens with a chapter called ‘How to use this book’, which outlines the teacher’s role. This is the most significant and substantial part of the book, complete with detailed writing exercises. These well-developed tasks are ideal for busy teachers plans and prep.
