Solidarity, with Differences

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 January 2009

Extract

DAVID HORNBROOK'S articles in New Theatre Quarterly are a timely and significant contribution to the debate on drama in schools. They articulate a persuasive critique of the ‘progressive’ roots of educational drama, raise important questions about where drama should be placed in the curriculum, and rightly stress the need for teachers to define clearly the content of their discipline.
