Write a Review

I don't know much about drama how do I go about choosing the 'right' show for my students?

Our school has a wide range of backgrounds and abilities
how can I ensure fairness for all in the production?

I barely have any time to spare
how can I rehearse this every week?

My school has no budget for a production, how can I make our production pay for itself?


Given how daunting it can feel to be charged with putting on a school play, this book is essential for teachers new to school shows and a valuable aid for the more experienced. It serves as an invaluable guide to producing work from all-time favourite blockbusters (such as Grease and Oliver!) to more obscure straight plays and comedies.

From cautionary tales to regular simple lists of dos and don’ts, and covering topics from clearing performing rights and managing the budget to looking after your own mental health, this book gives you all you need to produce and direct a successful school production and take the headache out of the job.
