In advance of the Octagon’s performance run of Animal Farm in February next year, we will be hosting a high quality training session for teachers delivered by NATD (National Association for the Teaching of Drama). The session will be 1.5 hours in length and the aim is to introduce teachers to a fun, practical and engaging way in which to teach the text in the classroom or drama studio. Although the session will be practical, it also addresses ways in which practical exploration of a text can improve the quality of written work in an exam, or assessment. The approaches explored in the workshop are transferable to the teaching of any set text.

The session will take place on Wednesday 24 January 2024, 4.30 - 6pm here at the Octagon Theatre, delivered by NATD and supported by the Octagon Theatre’s creative engagement team.

Cost: £5 per person

Please provide full name of each teacher and the school they will be representing.
