Reviews

An excellent resource for teachers. The four plays in themselves are short, zippy and dynamic, providing lots of flexibility for small and large cohorts of students to perform whilst exploring both microcosmic and macrocosmic issues related to the theme. In addition, the inclusion of the exercises employed by the directors and playwrights to devise the subject matter, is essential in making this book a compact resource for creating schemes of work around the topic of migration.
