'One of the handiest things to have around; if a non-specialist teacher picked it up it could lead to a really enjoyable lesson.'
- Teaching Drama Magazine, June 2007.

'Farmer's clear, well written book has filled a valuable gap in the market, enabling one to really plan a suitable warm up session for each occasion.  Beforehand it was merely assumed that drama games were conjured up on the spot.  This book really belongs amongst the the top 10 books any director or drama teacher should own.'
- Barnaby Rayfield, Staff Director, English Touring Opera Spring 2008 Season

'The language used is straight-forward and the instructions are easy to follow. The way in which the games are categorised into areas will save me time and also ensure that my activities are focused in the right direction and suited to the purpose of the lesson.'
-  Bernadette Collins, UK

'This is a great resource, I am a student studying Primary school teaching - you helped with my final assessment! Thanks.'
- Felicity Ainsworth, Newcastle, NSW, Australia.

'I am a newly certified theatre teacher and have to thank you for providing the most creative resources I have ever seen to educate and entertain young children.'
