About Glyn Trefor-Jones
Glyn Trefor-Jones is a theatre director, writer and teacher. Having gained a degree in Modern History and Politics from Cardiff University, he went on to pursue his creative ambitions by studying Acting and Musical Theatre at Hertfordshire Theatre School and, later, acting and creative writing at AARTS International. Having toured extensively as an actor, performing in a variety of theatre, corporate and television work, he began to write and tour his own work, establishing Prospero Productions, Liberty Productions and the Bedford Rep Theatre Company. He has written extensively for young people as well as writing, directing and producing his own musicals under the production company Glyn Trefor-Jones Presents. He has always combined his theatre engagements with teaching work and has worked for an eclectic array of drama schools, youth theatre companies, schools and drama groups in both the UK and USA. In 2005, Glyn established The Academy of Performing Arts, a part-time theatre school for young people between the ages of five and seventeen. The Academy quickly flourished into a thriving training academy with centres across Bedfordshire and Warwickshire. Glyn remains the creative director of all schools and continues to teach acting and musical theatre.
Reviews for Drama Menu: Theatre Games in Three Courses
'Well organised and easy to use… a useful and relevant tool for anyone involved with facilitating drama sessions'
Drama Magazine
'An essential resource for anyone teaching drama to children of all ages... with catchy titles, clear numbering and individual exercise summaries, Drama Menu is an easily accessible, flexible and creative resource useful for any dramatic platform. A must have for all teachers wanting to give their students the very best!'
Word Matters
'Easy to navigate... definitely something for everyone... a really useful collection'
Teaching Drama
'Ideal... [the author's] knowledge and experience are apparent in his writing and this book will provide a great deal of varied and inspiring material for sessions with secondary-aged or older students, although many activities could be used with or adapted for younger age-groups'
Drama Resource
'Unbelievably useful... every reader will find something new and of absolute hands-on usefulness... Drama Menu will become your companion'
ReviewsGate.com
'An extensive collection of theatre games arranged in easy-to-understand groupings for beginning and experienced teacher-directors... Most delightfully, Drama Menu comes in a SPIRAL-BOUND edition, which already charmed me before I even opened the cover. It's something anyone publishing a book of theatre games should consider doing. A spiral binding means that you can lay the book flat on a desk, table or stage edge and it will stay open to the right page. You can hold it in one hand easily, or even pull the front and back covers to each other so you're just looking at one page. The annoyance of losing your page, or trying to keep a large volume open with your thumb as you gesture to help teach a game has disappeared!'
