DNA Synopsis

This new Student Edition of Dennis Kelly's popular play DNA contains introductory commentary and notes by Clare Finburgh Delijani, which gives an in-depth analysis of the play's context and themes.

As well as the complete text of the play, this new Methuen Drama Student Edition includes:

* An introduction to the playwright and social context of the play

* Discussion of the context, themes, characters and dramatic form

* Overview of staging and performance history of the play

* Bibliography of suggested primary and secondary materials for further study.

Dennis Kelly's play DNA centres on friendship, morality and responsibility in odd circumstances. When a group of young friends are faced with a terrible accident, they deliberately make the wrong choices to cover it up and find themselves in an unusually binding friendship where no one will own up to what they've done.

A preview of DNA by Dennis Kelly, edited by Clare Finburgh Delijani is available here.

DNA is a set text for the AQA and OCR exam boards for GCSE English.

It is also a popular choice for GCSE Drama for its inherent theatricality.

To further the study of DNA Bloomsbury Academic have a Q&A with the playwright Dennis Kelly, which explores the play’s major themes with ideas to help students to analyse the play, as well as a Q&A from the audience.

There is also a classroom poster available, with key themes and discussion points for DNA.
