I'm pretty impressed with a new book from Bloomsbury about the Globe's Education work. In Creative Shakespeare, Fiona Banks describes the ways in which educational practitioners at the Globe bring Shakespeare to life for students of all ages ... It's practical and informative ... give it to all your director/practitioner/teacher friends for Christmas. -- Susan Elkin The Stage Creative Shakespeare is not only a book of fantastic teaching ideas: it's also a great read for anyone who is interested in Shakespeare as theatre and Shakespeare in education ... Just as the Globe theatre has the potential to bring Shakespeare's plays to life for its audiences in this very particular way, so these workshop techniques have the potential to lift the text in the classroom from the page in a very powerful way ... It's difficult in this short space to convey a sense of the richness of this book and of the depth of experience which has produced it. It's more than a resource book: it's a book that every teacher of Shakespeare should read. -- Gary Snapper Teaching English In pedagogy, Fiona Banks's Creative Shakespeare: The Globe Education Guide to Practical Shakespeare is a rich resource of educational tactics for students of all ages, although elementary and secondary teachers will find it most useful. -- Roland Greene, Stanford University Recent Studies in Tudor and Stuart Drama
