FEBRUARY - JULY 2022
EVERYONE'S A PLAYWRIGHT!
​
A truly local theatre company committed to helping to provide a manageable, safe and fulfilling creative curriculum for Haringey Schools.
EVERYONE'S A PLAYWRIGHT
​
Our first professional project ran in the summer term and featured 230 young people writing short plays with input from us in the form of directors, actors and writers visiting and working with them in school. The finished scripts were given script in hand performances at Alexandra Palace in July over 2 fantastic days.
​
This project was funded by Arts Council England, however we now have a new version of the project available for schools to buy in ad hoc.
​
The project will end with a selection of scripts being performed by professional actors in the Creativity Pavillion at Alexandra Palace.
​
Provisonal costs for the whole project are £950 for 2 classes or £1250 for 3 classes or £1650 for 4 classes. For this each class will receive 3 sessions led by Jonny Siddall, an in school performance (script in hand of 5 selected scripts) with 4 professional actors in an afternoon probably in your school hall.
​
If you have a larger budget then actors can be brought in in the earlier stages as well. We aim to use local artists - most recently 2 of the 4 actors lived or were from Haringey.

What people said about us:
​
​"Many thanks Jonny and well done again for last week - the children loved it and were so very excited to see/hear their scripts being performed." Headteacher St Mary's School N8
​
"Just wanted to say a big thank you for yesterday, as I didn't get to before we dashed off back to school. The children all really enjoyed themselves and the looks on their faces when their work or their friends was performed was lovely to see."
"So a big thanks to you and all the people who made it possible. It was great for the children to get out of the classroom and experience a theatre, something many have never done before or hadn't been able to this past year or so." Teacher Bounds Green School N22
​
"We all loved the project and it was great to see what was produced!" Teacher Weston Park School
​
Alternatively we also can visit your school for a day and work with up to 4 classes over 4 workshops and use drama to explore areas of the curriculum in a different way. The emphasis on hearing all the voices in the class and ensuring all can gain the confidence and freedom of looking at a subject through Drama. We can cover any topic from Romans to Earthquakes, urban planning to bullying.
