Theatre Games and Beyond - Paperback

by Amiel Aschotz (Author)

For teachers everywhere, this is a handbook of over 140 theatre games designed to stimulate creativity in students of all ages. The games progress from Orientation (Face to Face, You and Me) and Trust (Catch Me Falling, Lead the Blind) to more advanced games that develop the senses, coordination, and spontaneity. A section on characters and stories builds improvisational acting skills, and all of the essential elements of acting and character development are explored. Sample workshops provide a guide for using the games. Anyone working with performers of any age in schools, colleges, or community theatre will find this book a valuable resource.
