Good idea to be searching on twitter. What's the @ for this drama teacher?

I'm weary of that being the question as a past paper question has been, "Theatre today is full of tricks and gimmicks". It seems too similar...

I think he might be talking about @Theatresaurus

ah we've done loads of this in class, maybe I can help? Buchner wrote it in the 1830s, when there was lots of revolution and uprising amongst the European working classes (in France especially) and so Buchner used the play to criticize conditions amongst the poor in Europe. He hjad previously written an illegal pamphlet called the Hessian Courier, and had to flee his home to escape persecution. His friend and co-author was captured and died under interrogation in prison. He also took a degree in comparative anatomy (i.e comparing humans and animals) which comes through pretty obviously in the play...

oh and also Woyzeck was a real man (Johann Woyzeck) he was a barber and soldier and he was killed in 1824(?) for murdering a widow. Before they executed him he was medically experimented on, and all this was reported by a man called Clarus who saw his decline as being caused by his lack of power in the army and the medical experiments performed on him.

Hope that helps! Sorry if I rambled a bit, I was actually trying to get it clear in my mind as well :P





Ahhh thankyouu life saverr!!!

What grade are you aiming for? Because if you get 20 on Section C, 20 on Section B, and then 10 on Section A, that (by last year's grades) is a high B. (An A was 52)

So 52 out of 80 is an A? :O

Also, does anyone know how much this exam is worth of our overall A2 grade?

It's good to get in one full-length timed practice exam before the actual exam, something I have not yet done though...

That what I find. I also tend never to get it done either.
