Playbooks

Following the success of our history workshops, we were asked by a publisher, Key Curriculum plc, to develop a series of books containing history plays that can be read and performed by primary school children.

The result was six books containing 3 or 4 plays each, with lots of characters for young actors to create, there are even non-speaking parts for those with less confidence. The plays are about 10 - 15 minutes in performance length, and are ideal for a class to perform at assembly for the rest of the school, or as a History project with ideas for scenery and costume with each book.

The Tudors - Historical Plays

The plays cover Henry VII, Henry VIII and his wives, Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth .

The Egyptians - Historical Plays

Britain in WWII - Historical Plays

Greek Myths & Legends
