The GCSE Drama Coursebook is firmly based on practical explorations of how to make, perform and respond to drama. It employs a wide range of methods to cover research, improvisation, script writing, design and presentation. The resources used to stimulate drama are exciting and varied, ranging from photo-love stories and poems to fine art and contemporary plays.

In addition to the five core units, each of which could be used as the basis of a term's work, there is guidance for students on coursework and examinations. Each unit contains a special assignment to extend skills and knowledge. The 10 projects may be used to complement the units or stand alone as assessment tasks.

The re-issue of this established and widely-used text aims to meet the demands of the revised specifications in GCSE Drama, and coincides with new editions of The Script Sampler: Extracts for performance at GCSE and Starting With Scripts: Dramatic Literature for KS3 & 4.
