Woyzeck by Georg Büchner

Woyzeck by Georg Büchner is one of the nine set texts for Component 3: Theatre Makers in Practice in the Pearson A level syllabus. These set texts form the basis of Section C: Interpreting a Performance Text, which requires students to assume the role of director and write about the text, incorporating the ideas of a practitioner as well as making reference to the play’s original performance conditions. The best way for students to explore these ideas in their chosen set text is to have practically explored them in depth. This scheme of work offers a range of different ideas for closely exploring the text to enable students to write in the specific, drama focused way that is required.
