The Story Behind Too Much Punch For Judy

Reviews

“As a GCSE Performing Arts Teacher often it is difficult tofind teaching materials that really meet the needs of the students I teach. Ihave long been a fan of Mark Wheeller and in particular "Too Much PunchFor Judy". This book to accompany the play is a gift. It offers invaluableinsight into how the play was created, the creative processes that wereundertaken to stage it and most importantly the Playwrights journey from pageto stage. The course I teach requires the students to fully understand thedemands of working as a professional in this Industry. Thank you Mark for creating this wonderfulresource. I highly recommend this to all Drama Teachers!”

“This book was enthralling from start tofinish. Not only does it give a clear insight into how Too Much Punch for Judyevolved it reminds you of the energy and integrity true drama can bring.Without exaggerating Mark Wheeller's page turner inspired me to give up myleadership duties and get back into the drama studio with my amazing students.Even if you do not discover your Road to Damascus moment you'll be a lotclearer about Too Much Punch for Judy!!”

Andy – Amazon Review from the First edition of the book.

“The way you tell this unique story of your personal journey, (all themore engaging because of your modesty, honesty and self-deprecation) and thenshift into a full-bloodied account of the genesis of a play, I found totallygripping. You tell a racy, readable tale of an adventure you have shared with ayouth theatre group, who get full credit for their own creativity but who havealso clearly had the benefit of your own experiences and the inspiration ofyour dedicated, passionate teaching method.”
