Created by an educator

Marjorie L. Mitchell

Mitchell developed this curriculum from years of teaching, gathering the ideas, methods, and classroom tools that help a middle-school drama program take shape. Her approach respects both the craft of theatre and the practical needs of the teacher leading it.

The result is an inclusive or supplemental resource that can support a complete program without forcing every classroom into the same path.

The work acknowledges the many educators, authors, and publishers whose shared expertise helped inform the curriculum.
