Overview

This 2nd edition has been updated to be gender-neutral, better organized, and include modern technology and social media. Even better, the Student Workbook is just that... an individual workbook for each student, loose-leaf, three-hole-punched, and ready to drop into a binder. We've designed this book to fit the budgetary considerations of schools, making it available at a fraction of the price of other Theatre 1 textbooks.We retained all the elements that made the first edition of this book a top-selling theatre arts curriculum text year after year. You'll still find the daily bell work, fun puzzles, and quizzes and tests that you've come to rely on to make classroom management more effortless. This classroom-tested, year-long curriculum covers the entire spectrum of theatre: theatre history, scene work, acting, characterization, publicity, play production, games and improvisations, and more. It is designed to help teachers organize and energize their Theatre 1 class, engaging students in learning by doing.The second edition of the Teacher's Guide is also better laid out, with the notes to the teacher now appearing alongside the corresponding student page. No more flipping back and forth between pages! Four additional sections in the Teacher's Guide make this student-friendly text also very teacher-friendly: teaching tools, evaluation tools, production tools, and tests and projects.

Author Information

Suzi Zimmerman was the youngest of three children and, admittedly, a bit of a troublemaker. Her siblings were good at sports and music, but she seemed to be flailing. She knew she was creative and loved to perform, but her community focused mainly on sports and music. Those who lacked a place tended to become bored, which led to unacceptable behavior. She finally discovered theatre, but only because it was offered at the high school level. It was then that she vowed to fight for more accessible performance opportunities for all levels. After college, she founded a local theatre troupe, which eventually became a community theatre, fulfilling her dream of bringing performance opportunities to all. Suzi has taught for over twenty years in public education, and is also a writer, artist, and businessperson. Zimmerman has acted professionally in film and on the stage. She is the spokesperson for and director of New Hope Foundation, a nonprofit in northern Texas working to improve the lives of underprivileged families. She is married with five children, two of whom are successful in the film industry.
