Twelfth Night – Rhinegold Publishing

Twelfth Night

£14.95

This scheme aims to explore Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night through a series of practical workshops and to consolidate this knowledge into essay format for the Unit 1 Drama written paper, Section B option ‘Study and performance of a scripted play’. This Unit could also easily be adapted for Section A option, ‘Practical work completed during the course’, but please note that you cannot use this scheme for both sections A and B of the written paper as the choice of play must be different.

It is set out over seven weeks, i.e. one half term, and comprises 14 one-hour lessons, plus additional homework time.
