Format:Paperback
This book is a brilliant resource for fresh ways of working in drama. As a freelance workshop leader I have used it with primary school kids (7-11 years), teenagers and adults. The games have gone down really well - I never run my sessions without it!

Format:Paperback
A really useful book of drama games - with games suitable for drama groups, schools and as general ice-breakers for classes and groups. I purchased the book after attending one of David's workshops in London and was pleased to find some of the games that he used in the workshop. I have used some of the games (e.g. Traffic Lights, Grandma's Footsteps and Clap Together) with my pre-school group and will definitely be using some of the games as warm-ups with my drama-group at art school next term.

Format:Paperback
David Farmer has a reputation throughout Europe and even the United States for taking large classes of schoolchildren and turning them spellbound by his plays and keeping them in that state during a lesson on how to achieve realistic acting. This book should be in every school, and much wider afield. If you're involved in drama or simply wanting to help children or adults pop out of their normal skins for a while then buy this book.
