Script Sampler - Extracts for Performance at GCSE (Paperback, New edition)

This anthology of 15 extracts provides activities to meet the requirements for short performance assessment in the 2002 GCSE drama specifications. It acts as a companion to "Starting with Scripts" and supports "The GCSE Drama Coursebook", providing a complete portfolio of resources for GCSE drama. The extracts represent the full range of dramatic genres, from Shakespeare to contemporary work. Each "sample" can lead to a full presentation of about 20 minutes. As well as a short introduction, every piece is accompanied by activities that offer opportunities for practical or written work and discussion: understanding the text producing the scene and further development.
