Notă biografică
ALICE SAVAGE comes from a theaterrical family, but she strayed from that path to become an English-language teacher. However, she could not escape her past. After many happy years in the classroom, she eventually came to realize that theater offers a great way to learn a language. She now lives in the most international city in the U.S., Houston, Texas, where she teaches, writes, and produces plays with her students at Lone Star College. In addition to the Integrated Skills Through Drama series, Alice has books with Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press, and Wayzgoose Press.
