I am an English teacher, not drama, and while this is geared more toward theatre, there are many useful resources for the classroom English teacher. I liked how it helped students focus on some of the themes and motifs of the play, as well as character motivation. It helped me generate some general discussion and seminar questions, and I thought that it benefitted the students' comprehension of the play.

Very useful additions in the book to help understanding the play. Also really liked the images from past presentations of the play

As described. Perfect for my class that it was required for. Side notes really helped.
