Description

Part of a Bundle Rent, winner of the 1996 Pulitzer prize in Letters, Drama & Music demonstrates the consequences of the HIV/Aids epidemic of the 1990's. However, this lesson and study guide focuses on its origin, playwright & composer, songs, history of the Broadway musical and a mini-lesson the Tony Awards. This lesson suitable for an arts integration in an AP language arts or Honors social studies or drama class. Note: This lesson is most appropriate for senior high school.

The lesson can stand alone or be combined with one of my Famous Artist Biographies (Lin Manuel Miranda) or other musical lessons (Wicked, Dear Evan Hansen).

Need a quick emergency lesson plan? Or one for a substitute? Everything is provided for the busy teacher.
