DramaWorks is UNIQUE in its approach.

DramaWorks is a small publishing business dedicated entirely to teaching resources about theatre and drama. Most of these feed into the examination syllabus requirements for GCSE and for the higher exam levels [all sixth form level drama exams] though there are also lesson plans for years 7, 8 and 9 [ages 11-14] and general work on Devising and on Physical Theatre, which are suitable for use at many levels.

You will find these, and work on Practitioners, plus detailed work on set texts, under Teaching Resources. Plays published for performance in schools and youth theatres are to be found under the Playshare Scheme.


Prices Slashed for both Hardback and Digital Resources!

From now until June 13th 2024, all resources will be only £40.00 (excluding plays which remain at the same price). Enjoy!

DramaWorks will be closing on 13th June 2024

DramaWorks is coming close to the end of its time. On June 13th 2024 Digital Theatre will have bought the rights to the digital content of DramaWorks and this website will cease to exist.

Thereafter there will be no more hard copies either. Digital copies only will be available from DT+. If you haven’t been able to afford to join DT the next few months are the LAST CHANCE to buy my resources. Look at the volume of the content and make sure you are not left without.

Please note that I do have some hard copies still so watch the website for offers. I still have considerable numbers of some hard copies and am considering offering them at a very reduced price so that I am not left with huge numbers that would have to be destroyed after that June 2024 date.


About DramaWorks

Jeni Whittaker understands the problems facing students, who need to translate visual and practical experience into written form.

Every important theory of each practitioner is made uniquely accessible and tested through practice.

Drama Through Practice

‘Through Practice’ is the byword to everything DramaWorks produces. This means that every exercise is tried and tested and WORKS.

The practical testing of theory is key to understanding and remembering.
