Key features include a critical commentary of the play with extensive, clearly labelled analyses on themes, characters and context. They take studying drama even further with sections on dramatic technique, critical reception, related works, fascinating behind-the-scenes interviews with playwrights, directors or actors, and a helpful glossary of dramatic terms.
An English theatre classic, J. B. Priestley’s An Inspector Calls is as much about today as it is about the 20th century. On a night in 1912, Inspector Goole’s unexpected arrival at the Birling family’s home turns a dinner party into a murder investigation with some shattering conclusions.
Closely following the requirements of GCSE English Literature assessment objectives, these studies include expert advice on how to write about modern drama. With featured activities for group study and independent work, they are versatile and valuable to students and teachers alike.
