What do teachers say about this resource? (5409)

This is a very well thought out resource, very useful for a teacher introducing A-Level students to this key figure in twentieth century theatre. I like the succinct, precise nature in which the key information was presented. There was a great bio with photographs at the start to create a contextual understanding of the man and the times. There was a very good explanation of key terms and epic theatre and good analysis and synopsis of two of his major plays. I also particularly like the linking of abstract ideas to well thought out practical activities which could provide a strong basis for pupils to think about, debate and discuss the key ideas, having now (after the activities) being informed by their own direct experiences of drama in the classroom... I would recommend this resource
