Welcome

Stay connected to the Drama!
Welcome to our 2021 English and Drama for Schools catalogue! Inside you’ll find all our latest and greatest textbooks and plays
for teaching and studying drama. Whether you’re looking for traditional or contemporary plays, student guides or critical texts, or
some inspirational professional development ideas, our books have something to support you and your students.

We’re pleased to now welcome Oberon Books to our growing collection of drama titles. With Oberon joining the Methuen Drama
and The Arden Shakespeare collection at the start of last year, our English and Drama offering reflects the very best of global
theatre from some of the world’s leading dramatists and introducing the talented new playwrights of today.

Our highlights for 2021 include: Matthew Nichols’ hotly anticipated The Drama Teacher’s Survival Guide providing some inspiration
and support for all drama teachers, a brand new Methuen Drama Student Edition of Dennis Kelly’s popular DNA, and a collection
of 5 new plays in Positive Stories for Negative Times, written for young people to perform that bring some cheer to what has been
a difficult year for young people (and all) in drama.

Lastly, we’d like to thank all the teachers, playwrights, educators, and of course our wonderful authors, who have reviewed
material, answered our questions, and worked with us this past year to shape our resources.

We hope you enjoy!

From the Bloomsbury English and Drama Team

writing for the stage. Today it features over 500 titles and continues to grow alongside the staging of new work. Below is a small
selection of some of our newest published plays that appeal to students at different levels for study and performance.

PERFECT FOR THE CLASSROOM
•   Students can filter results by content type, genre, period, author, setting
    and more, and select plays to perform via cast size and gender of roles.
•   Using the character grid they can see how characters interact and they
    can develop a “Part Book” to view the lines for single characters, ideal
    for use in rehearsals and for analysis.
•   Videos are supported by an interactive searchable transcript player
    and closed captioning, as well as video clipping functionality.

“The selection is vast and teens whose exposure
to the theatre is limited to scholarly fare will find
themselves falling in love with the art form as a
result of the exposure to younger, edgier, and
more culturally diverse playwrights.”
