'A really informative read... full of resources, insights and clever ideas for writing, acting, staging and designing' * Word Matters (Journal of the Society of Teachers of Speech and Drama) * 'Robin Belfield's excellent book is a good primer for those wanting to create their own verbatim theatre production. Its theory is clear and easy to navigate... verbatim theatre is certainly worth exploring in the classroom and this book should be by your side as you do' * Ink Pellet *
