Abstract

This study sheds light on the implementation of drama in teaching speaking English as a Foreign Language (EFL) at the Algerian Secondary School Level (SSL). It aims at exploring its implementation to teach speaking, revealing EFL teachers’ perceptions towards its incorporation and unveiling the possible challenges that may be encountered when employing it. To collect data, two research instruments were implemented, including an interview and a questionnaire. The findings revealed that teachers’ inclusion of drama activities (DAs) is highly limited. Besides, EFL teachers have different perceptions towards its incorporation, and most of them encounter a set of opposing obstacles when applying them. The results of the current research, including implications, recommendations, and suggestions for further studies, are provided.
