A dip-in, flick-through, quick-fire resource book in the Nick Hern Books Drama Games series, this title is for teachers and workshop leaders working with difficult or reluctant students, youth groups, young offenders, and all those who seem intent on saying 'no' to whatever is offered them. 'This book offers invaluable ways for artists, teachers, workshop leaders and activists to better use the arts to empower young people' Ken Livingstone, from his Foreword. For these groups, drama games and activities need to be robust and engaging, and the dozens that appear in this book have been devised with this in mind - and then tested by their target players. Each page features clear instructions on How to Play, notes on the Benefits of the Game, and advice on age range, number of players and timing. Following the ninety games and exercises aimed at developing core skills, the book offers scenarios for a series of improvisational challenges that test participants' abilities in mediation, communication, negotiation, assertiveness and managing emotions. Also included is a collection of games aimed at preparing teachers and workshop leaders for facilitating challenging sessions. The ultimate aim is to encourage reluctant participants to engage, collaborate and develop not just skills for drama but skills for life.

Wenner - Maskew Miller Longman 2014 Letterkundeprys. BFF deur Cecilia du Toit is die Afrikaanse wenner van Maskew Miller Longman se Letterkunde-kompetisie in 2014. Dis 'n heerlike eietydse drama oor vier vriendinne wat desperaat op soek is na metgeselle vir die Graad 11 bal, en nie juis soos BFF (Best Friends Forever) teenoor mekaar optree nie. Een van die vier besluit om vir die ander 'n les in lojaliteit te leer, en span 'n Facebook-hartebreker in om haar plan deur te voer. Die toneelstuk verwys tong-in-die-kies na die mite van Pygmalion wat vir homself 'n vrou skep, en na Frankenstein wat 'n monster maak om sy wraakplanne uit te voer. Deon Opperman, bekende dramaturg en vanjaar beoordelaar van die Letterkunde-kompetisie, se die volgende oor BFF: Die karakters is juis, eg en uniek.; Die dialoog is kraakvars, geloofwaardig en uiters vermaaklik.; Die stuk bied baie interessante moontlikhede vir opvoering op die verhoog.; Die teks is relevant vir 'n tienerleser en 'n gehoor.; 'n Mens kan baie by die karakters leer; tog is daar nooit die gevoel van 'n preek wat afgesteek word nie. Four friends are desperately looking for dates for the Grade 11 ball and do not exactly act like BFF's (Best Friends Forever) to each other. One of the four friends decides to teach the other a lesson in loyalty and gets a Facebook heartbreaker to help her carry out her plan.
