Mini-dramas are popular. Whether in the classroom, in theater clubs, in courses on performing arts, or anywhere a playful approach to language is encouraged, mini-dramas allow for quick and easy experimentation with texts. They are suitable for warm-up exercises, voice training, and theater education games. Additionally, these short texts are helpful in situations that require effective and concise presentations in front of an audience. The practical material includes the first collection of mini-dramas specifically for teachers and students. It contains a compendium of exercises and methods for writing and performing short scenic texts, along with many worksheets and useful tips on the subject. In addition to mini-dramas by authors from youth theater and award-winning texts by young people, exercises and games are presented that enable students to become actively involved in a short amount of time.
