Pocket Shakespeare (from Propeller)

http://propeller.org.uk/play/pocket-henry-v#/menu
I have read countless 'Teacher Packs' or suggested lessons to run alongside professional productions. These are invariably poor, especially when it comes to Shakespeare (Find one without a biog of his life for the first 2 pages).

I was therefore pleasantly surprised when I came across this microsite from Propeller called 'Pocket Henry'. It contains information about different production elements as well as drawings, audio and photographs of the production process. Not only is it well presented but the information behind it is useful. You may be particularly interested design section which show the process from sketcing, the creating a model box and then the final design.
