Where the work really does inspire is when authors write about their practice with clarity, care and a sense of why learning in drama matters, and this shows London drama teachers and workshop leaders at their best - Helen Nicholson - English Drama Media
Product Description
"Drama to Inspire" is a timely selection of practice based accounts produced by fifteen workshop leaders and friends of the long established association for teachers of drama, London Drama. Many of the authors are internationally renowned for their work. Each piece affirms the immense potential for dynamic learning that is at the heart of drama. They illustrate how teachers can use inspiring drama to provide valuable reflective learning experience while at the same time fulfilling the essential requirements of the curriculum. These are some of the gems in this book: the ethics and aesthetics of risk-taking in the drama room are explored by Andy Kempe and also by Stella Barnes Alistair Martin-Smith and Lucy Cuthbertson offer contrasting accounts of working with Shakespeare multi-disciplinary projects are explored by Adam Annand and others. Daniel Shindler examines emotional and spiritual health in his project 'Who am I: Roots/Routes', Stuart Bennett looks at the use of theatre companies and actors in the classroom, Julia Potts shows the potential of good relationships between commercial theatre and schools, Amanda Kipling identifies the skills drama teachers need today, and Dorothy Heathcote, Gaynor Pilbeam, Jonothan Neelands and others describe their current practice and philosophies through their ongoing projects. "Drama to Inspire" supports teachers of drama, celebrates the diversity of approaches and offers individual teachers a variety of ways forward. It is a must for all who care about where drama can go.

I was the senior inspector for drama for LCC/ILEA 1960-1985, and led the team developing drama teaching in London schools.
We sought inspiration and guidance from first class practioners, and organised courses for teachers to improve their classroom performances and their careers.
Publication of articles and a book (DRAMA GUIDELINES) were an integral part of that process.
16 years after my retirement, I am thrilled to see how much that work has developed. DRAMA TO INSPIRE (what a title!) details several approaches to motivate teachers without being prescriptive.
This book has my highest recommendation
