Very comprehensive guide about the work of Brecht. It is extremely detailed and covers aspects of his life, his political views and his these informed his approach to theatre.
There are pages that could be used for research, materials for developing students written responses as well as key practical lessons. I liked the fact that it covers so many different areas and is useful for both practical and theory lessons. The level of detail is excellent. The layout is clear, concise and easy to follow. I think the layout works well and is very user friendly in terms of being able to follow it. It is clearly labelled throughout so it is easy to identify which pages are handouts etc.
A well thought-out resource that covers a lot of material. It felt easy to read and could be used for a range of learners
