Theatre in Schools Scotland, an exciting initiative to champion theatre in Scotland’s schools, is coming to Ardrossan.
Theatre in Schools Scotland is touring acclaimed productions to primary schools throughout Scotland as part of its 2017 Scottish schools tour and is coming to Ardrossan later this month.
Up to Speed, created by Rosalind Sydney in association with Catherine Wheels will visit St Peter’s Primary School with Stanley Primary School, Ardrossan on Thursday 26 October.
Theatre in Schools Scotland was launched with great success as a three year pilot project in 2016 to create a touring and producing model with the ambition to ultimately bring one piece of high quality theatre to every schoolchild in Scotland each year.
Theatre in Schools Scotland has been developed by Imaginate, the national organisation in Scotland which promotes, develops and celebrates theatre and dance for children and young people and the National Theatre of Scotland, in partnership with leading performing arts companies/organisations for children and young people; Catherine Wheels Theatre Company, Visible Fictions and Starcatchers.
In addition to the performances, there will be resources available online for teachers. These will include show information; videos for teachers and children; post-show activities for teachers in the classroom and tools to help teachers and pupils evaluate the performances. These resources are available from theatreinschoolsscotland.com
