5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to drama and improvisation, 9 April 1999
By A Customer
I run The Independent Theatre Workshop - a theatre school for tots to teens in Dublin, Ireland and I am always on the lookout for material for my drama classes. I found this book easy to read and easy to use. Many 'teaching' books are so long winded that you never get far into them. This book follows a clear and logical path taking the young actor from the very basics, through to more complicated improvisations and short scripts in a fun and imaginative way. I often pick up this book and open it at random to select a game or excercise there and then - with great results! The instructions are clear and reader friendly and although every game and activity has a specific 'lesson' to teach, they all without exception actually WORK with children - a rare quality in this day and age when children know what they do and don't like and aren't shy about letting you know it! This is also the perfect book for the non -drama teacher to use to introduce drama into the classroom. Excellent for use with all children from 7 - 12 years (although my teens and young adults love the stuff too!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally! A bockbuster book of games, 13 May 2003
This has got to be the best book I have ever bought! I have been teaching drama here in Cork(Ireland) for the past 15yrs. so I am constantly seeking out new ideas and books containing them. I must congratulate Ms.Bany-Winters on putting together one of the most comprehensive and fun books I have ever come across. Her ideas are set out in large print with amusing little animations to let you see the game she is describing. The instructions are given in a simple and straightforward manner, making it easy to scan quickly down the page rather than having to study the instructions in detail before attempting to play the game with students. I have already recomended this book to several of my colleagues, who have gone and bought the book and are now of the same opinion as myself having read it for themselves. I would highly recomend this book to anyone dealing either in a classroom situation or for those who are teaching drama to fee-paying stundents. Hurray for Ms. Bany-Winters, continued success to her and lets hope we see some more new and exciting ideas from her soon!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for anyone who has works with children's drama., 30 April 1999
By A Customer
I recently taught an enrichment course in drama and used this book as well as others to start off all sessions with the children. My drama students actually started to request that we play the games found in this book more than any of the other games I had available. These theatre activities can be used in concert with any dramatics program out there. It is a wonderful stepping stone for any dramatics instructor to add to their collection.
