New Directions in Theatre Education: Revised and Amplified Edition

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

There is no one-size-fits-all way to keep pace with the changes affecting high school students and those who educate them. That's why Joan Lazarus has gathered here the insights of hundreds of secondary school theatre teachers and teaching artists on how they have responded to the shifting demands of theatre education in today's schools. She paints a portrait of active, dynamic professionals who build vibrant programs and confront challenges in a variety of ways - from inclusive, interactive lessons to comprehensive programs that address the impact of poverty, race, gender and spirituality on students' lives. In the process, she shows how real teachers bring about real change. An accessible and up-to-date guide to best practices in theatre education, this expanded and revised edition encompasses new hands-on activities - drawn from the author's in-depth interviews and research.
