Beyond the Bard  (English, Paperback, Rutsky Joshua)

This book allows teachers to effectively integrate drama into their curriculum even if they do not have time to become widely read in classic or modern theater. Teachers are faced with tremendous time demands that often prevent them from researching new materials for their classes. Beyond the Bard is a valuable resource reviewing fifty plays, indexing them by themes and period, and offering ideas for incorporating them into the curriculum. As interest in "active learning" and alternate ways of reaching curricular goals grows, this book offers drama as an active learning experience that is still based in traditional works.
