KS3/KS4 Script Writing & Performance Workshop
At the heart of this amazing immersive attraction is script writing, performance and set design. Exclusive to schools, students have the opportunity to step into our creative world and explore show curation.
Pupils will:
- Discuss what a script is and why they are used and review from a writer, actor and director perspective.
- Explore the role of context and scene, characters, intended audience, use of tone, volume, mood and action to add impact
- In groups, reflecting on what they have learnt, write a script using The Plague as the topic and historic period in time.
- Provide a short performance of their scripts in our immersive education space
Designed for a class of up to 34 students, a workshop booking is £2 per pupil plus pupil admission (from £9.95).
