Publisher's Synopsis
A series of newly commissioned plays for National Curriculum English at Key Stage 3 (particularly attainment target 1, speaking and listening) and Drama. The three volumes in the series are thematically linked, large-cast, half-hour plays for classroom reading and performance. "Taboos" investigates the myths and prejudices that create taboos - from an 18th-century ghost story to modern taboos such as death and disability. The follow-up assignments focus on English attainment targets for reading, writing, speaking and listening; improvisation and acting work for Key Stage 3 Drama; and technical and design tasks for Drama, Art and Technology. The authors are drawn from TIE, provincial, youth and fringe theatre throughout the country.;The plays are available either singly or in packs of 5.
