Lots of fun and original resources to use in the Drama classroom. Always well received by the students. Thank you!

 by Patricia

I’m an “almost” retired theater teacher. Drama Notebook is an essential tool for theater teachers of all ages!!!

 by Kelsey

I cannot imagine a more comprehensive or easier to access library of resources for a drama teacher of any age! So grateful for this tool.

 by Kristin Liles

This was a great resource and we had a lot of fun doing some of these in our homeschool co-op.

 by Summer

Great resource! I appreciated the help finding scenes my kids could work on.

 by Jana M

Drama Notebook has some of the best written lesson plans. activities, and scripts that I have found! I am grateful for this resource. I am also so happy to be part of the Facebook group with other creative teachers!

 by Soledad

Drama Notebook is a great site! They have all the resources you need to upgrade your classes!

 by Anna

Great website! Super fun and helpful.

 by Tiffany

This website was such a great resource of activities for my first year teaching an acting class. As a former actor myself finding the structure for a class seemed a little daunting but with lesson plans to get me going and new activities and games to keep the class engaged it made my first year of teaching acting fun and easier than I imagined!

I have used several scripts as a preview or a summary of classic books. My 4th & 5th graders also then hear long excerpts of the actual books. The students love reading the scripts in class - readers theater style. They get exposed to excellent literature, but in an accessible way for their age. Drama Notebook is affordable and the scripts are quite varied. My students enjoy these very much.

 by BK

Great website, with many scripts to help my students practice their public speaking skills.

 by Sadie

This is such a great site! There are so many resources and plays to choose from! The creator is very kind and helpful. She took time in helping me find the perfect play for my little group. She was what made my subscription beneficial. Thank you!

 by Lea

This website was just what my student needed for her school project! Easy to use and many great options for her performance.

 by Karen Martini

I was so glad to find this website! The resources are thorough and easy to use. We found lots of great ideas. The task of doing a Shakespeare play was not so overwhelming with all the resources at hand on this site. Thank you for all the support.

 by Christine Newitt

What a fabulous set of resources for our church drama group. Looking forward to performing them with the gang.

 by Kim Porter

Returning educator - love this resource! There are so many amazing activities here with various group sizes, age/ability levels, and genres. Keep writing and sharing!

 by Traci

The site was such a great resource for our students! So many different options to choose from!

 by Karen S.

My students LOVED the resources on this site! The plays were easy to learn and the content was fun. This will be my go to resource in the future.

 by Francesca

Love! So many helpful resources.

 by Lex

Drama Notebook is the most wonderful resource for drama teachers. Janea has thought of everything from setting up your school, warm up, cool downs, lesson plans, poetry, plays, monologues and the list goes on. It is truly a genie in a bottle for drama teachers. Thank you, Janea.

 by Gillian R

Really helpful as a resource for scripts for young performers for classes, couldn't find any other site like it!

 by Erin

Amazing website that has tons of fantastic resources. My students found the plays engaging and hilarious, putting on a production with them now!

 by Regina Gill

I have enjoyed using Drama notebook. They have a wide variety of plays available for casts of different sized and topics. They have amazing lessons to use. I just started a Drama club at my middle school and if it were not for Drama Notebook, I might have been lost.

 by Cathy Sponsler

Every resource is usable right away, which is invaluable when the biggest resource I'm lacking is time. In fact, if I had more time to explore, I'd probably use twice as much material as I'm using now!

 by Pieter

Excellent site for drama teachers who teach kids and teens like myself, I use it regularly to update my knowledge and find some new tricks here and there. Great resource for scripts and lesson ideas as well. Thank you.

 by lee bory

We are a theatre group in a retirement community, and we found a whodunnit play with lots of characters that we are rehearsing now to present to all residents. A great resource for us senior citizens as well as for young students.

 by Melissa Newell

This site was a wonderful help for our homeschool theatre group. I was able to easily gain ideas and insight into lesson planning. As we don't have money, I was only able to get a year's membership. That was more than enough though! I am so thankful for this membership! Thank you!

 by Nadyne

So many amazing resources available! Hard to pick and choose. Everything I tried in my classes went over very well. My favourite were the two person short skits.

 by Rinat

I highly recommend this website for anyone involved in theater education or running a drama club. The site offers an incredible selection of scripts and methodological materials that are both practical and inspiring. The content is thoughtfully curated and caters to various age groups and skill levels, making it a versatile resource.

What stands out the most is the quality of the materials—they are well-structured, creative, and easy to adapt to different settings. Whether you're looking for ready-made scripts or guidance on organizing your theater lessons, this website has it all.

As someone who works with children, I find the resources invaluable for fostering creativity and making lessons engaging. It's clear that a lot of care and expertise went into creating this platform.

I’m genuinely impressed with the site's content and would recommend it to educators, theater enthusiasts, and anyone seeking inspiration for their drama activities!

 by Melisa

I found it very helpful to find a skit for our homeschool co-op. I have 5 kids and there were many options for a skit 10 minutes and under for 5 characters, perfect for performing in front of other homeschoolers for our public speaking requirement. Most of them very clean and age appropriate for young viewers. Well written.

 by Emma

I was looking for a 'whodunnit' for an after school club that I run. Came across this website and found so much more. Really helpful for one off lessons that the students really enjoy. A great find even if it does require a little adaptation for UK.

 by Cindy Payne

Drama Notebook was a great help when finding a play for a small cast. The website is easy to navigate and the selection was fantastic. We found a script that fits our 4-H group perfectly, and we are excited to get to work. Thanks Drama Notebook.

 by Jennifer Deatherage

I was scouring the internet for ideas to use with my 4th grade students in our district's gifted pullout program. I only get to see them for an hour each week, so it is hard to incorporate reading and writing in any meaningful manner and still keep the students engaged. The scripts from Drama Notebook proved to be a wonderful tool! Not only did the kids LOVE performing them, but they also provided a way for me to incorporate creative writing--and all in a time frame that allowed to me to complete a lesson each week, in the one hour that I have them~!

 by Jatona Chester

As a choral teacher stepping into theater/drama education this site has been a LIFESAVER and I appreciate all the wonderful resources. My students have enjoyed all the activities and ideas I gained from this site.

 by Emma

Thank you for creating such a great collection of resources and scripts! I initially subscribed as I was new to teaching Primary School Drama but many of the activities proved popular with my High School students also. Would love to see even more short plays for a large cast (25 students and under 15 mins).

Hi Emma, thanks for leaving a review! I'm delighted that the site was helpful for you. We actually have plenty of shorter scripts available for large casts. I will email you a list for if you decide to come back to the site at any point. --Julia, member support

 by Allison

Great number of resources and the website is incredibly easy to use.

 by Teri

I have been a member for 13 years! This has been an indispensable resource for my theatre classroom. I have retired after 38 years. I will continue to recommend your site and materials as an essential resource to any theatre teachers (and other teachers). Thank you for all the time, sweat, love and care you put into growing your site to what it is today. “These young teachers don’t know how lucky they have it. Back in my day we had to go through tons of books and write our own plans!” Thanks again for the help you have given me.

I came across Drama Notebook by chance, but I must say it saved my life since I first got a drama class. It's a great resource for the lessons and both me and my students enjoy the activities very much. Thanks a lot!

 by Marielle DB

Drama Notebook really helped me out when I had to teach drama without a lot of experience. My students enjoyed 'The Great Baking Play' for their end of year play.

 by Maida Aziez

Drama Notebook saved me in the drama class as a teacher with no drama background. My students enjoyed all the engaging activities. I will definitely use it again and refer to my other teacher friends as well.

 by liz

Drama Notebook is a wonderful resource for teachers. I use it all the time.

 by Dominique Casoni

I have been a member for a few months. My pupils are not native speakers and yet, I can find plenty of ideas to make our workshops both educational and fun.

 by Sandra Garcia

I love all the resources Drama Notebook has provided! Thank you!

 by Wendy

I found some great material on Drama Notebook for my JH and HS to use in drama class. I recommend this site to others.

 by Theresa

The resources on this site saved me when I was assigned Grade 7/8 Drama to teach this year. I'm not comfortable teaching Drama at all, and I didn't know where to start. My students really enjoyed these resources, especially the games. Their favourite was the Mad Libs activity.

 by Adele

This is my go to site for kids drama pieces even here in the UK. Everything you would need is here - themes, seasons, occasions, age ranges etc... I LOVE IT

 by Anthony

This is an excellent resource to use if you need fun and engaging activities for your drama class. My class was quite excited to work on the MadLib activities, and had a blast performing them. Thanks so much!

 by Kevin Ward

This is my first time using Drama Notebook, and it was easy to find a play that would work for students. We are in rehearsal now and having fun. Thank you!

 by Khushboo
