Featured Plays/Songs

A play about the festival of Purim
The Jewish Festival of Purim commemorates the deliverance of the Jewish people in Ancient Persia. This play tells the story of Esther, the king Ahasuerus and Haman. An ideal vehicle for anyone teaching about festivals of religions other than Christia

The Ballad of Robin Hood
The legend of Robin Hood and his brave band brought to life for 9,10 & 11 year old children to perform.6 great songs including one each for Robin, Little John and the evil Sheriff.

The Ballad of St George
A rousing drama for Key Stage 2 children telling the story of Bold Saint George. Written in rhyming verse, with smashing songs to help the story along, a monstrous dragon and a beautiful princess and a happy ending, what could be better?

The Great Fire Of London
A play package for children aged 7 to 11. History explorers travel to 17th century London to find out the facts of the Great Fire. Was it the baker or French agent provocateurs who started the fire?

THE STORY OF JOSEPH
A completely new version of the Old Testament story written especially for 9 to 11 year olds. With nine totally new singable songs too.

Thomas Moon's Last Crime - Victorian crime and punishment
A play about Victorian law and order. Two 'criminals' are sentenced to transportation for stealing 2 chickens and 6 eggs! Based on real people and real events, this is an excellent way of introducing children to one aspect of Victorian life.

We performed your Ballad of Bold St George in the summer, which was a wonderful play and performed by pupils from 4 - 11. They really enjoyed the play, in particular they loved "I'm a Roman Soldier" so I thought I would try another of your plays. Could you send me the play and CD of songs for the Snow Queen.....
