OUR PLAYS for PSHE

Transforming young peoples lives’ through theatre.

Our educational plays link directly to PSHCE guidelines set out in the national curriculum and contribute to schools’ SMSC requirements as assessed for by OFSTED.

Our plays are frank and hard-hitting whilst using humour and music to help students relate to challenging subjects. Students can easily engage with the plays and our partner schools often rebook on an annual basis. 

Each play can be performed to a full year group and is performed by a cast of trained and DBS checked peer educators, all of whom are part of our in-house actor Development Programme. Our tours have grown in popularity over the years so booking early is the best way to ensure getting your first choice of date and time. Explore our current programme below.
