proving to be a real hit<br />
with pupils and teachers.<br />
And it’ s never been more<br />
needed because here in<br />

abilities to assess and<br />
motivate their pupils<br />
have never been more<br />
important. With a variety<br />
of interactive resources<br />

DAVID EDGAR<br />
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde<br />
Based on Robert Louis Stevenson’s<br />
classic horror story, this dramatic<br />
adaptation shows the transformation of<br />
the mild-mannered Dr Jekyll into the<br />
fiendish Mr Hyde. When Jekyll discovers<br />
a drug that can transform him, he<br />
becomes able to unleash the dark side<br />
of his nature onto the streets of<br />
Victorian London. But he soon discovers<br />
the price of his double life.<br />
What’s the hook?<br />
This compelling play makes Stevenson’s<br />
classic pre-1914 novella accessible to<br />
pupils, whilst remaining faithful to the<br />
original prose, allowing them to fully<br />
engage with the plot and themes.<br />
What are the themes?<br />
The struggle between good and evil,<br />
the conscious and unconscious, family<br />
relationships, Victorian society and<br />
morality.<br />
Teaching points<br />
With one actor taking the roles of both<br />
Jekyll and Hyde, the play allows pupils<br />
to more easily understand that these<br />
characters are ‘one’ person. The play is<br />
suitable for use either at Key Stage 3, or<br />
to support the study of the novel at<br />
Key Stage 4.<br />

better than the Queen?<br />
What’s the hook?<br />

opportunities to focus on pertinent<br />
contemporary issues that are presented<br />
in an accessible way.<br />
CHARLES WAY<br />
The Search for Odysseus<br />
Based on Homer’s epic poem,<br />
The Odyssey, this play centres on the<br />
hero’s son, Telemachus, and his quest to<br />
find his lost father. Telemachus was only<br />
a year old when Odysseus left to fight in<br />
the Trojan wars, leaving his wife,<br />
Penelope, behind. Years later, the war is<br />
over and Telemachus and Penelope<br />
expect Odysseus to return. When he<br />
does not, Penelope’s suitor, Eurymachus,<br />
determines to take Odysseus’s place. To<br />
stop him, Telemachus must find his<br />
father and bring him home.<br />
What’s the hook?<br />
A modern reworking of The Odyssey<br />
that will engage pupils through its<br />
appealing teenage protagonists and<br />
timeless story.<br />

author<br />
Mark wants to be a ‘legendary<br />
footballing poet’, but holding on to the<br />
twin dreams of playing for Aston Villa<br />
and writing poetry isn’t easy in his<br />
house. Mark’s father is a preacher, but a<br />
violent man, who beats his wife and<br />
shows little affection for his children.<br />
For Mark, fulfilling his goals involves a<br />
conflict between following his own<br />
ambitions and escaping his family.<br />
What’s the hook?<br />
A moving portrayal of teenage life and<br />
ambition set against a background of<br />
adversity. Zephaniah’s poetry suffuses<br />
the play with rhythm and flavour.<br />
What are the themes?<br />
Ambition, hope, friendship, family,<br />
poverty, desperation, violence, religion,<br />
racism and oppression, with strong links<br />
to Citizenship and PSHE.<br />
Teaching points<br />
With characters and themes that will<br />
engage all pupils, including reluctant<br />
readers and boys, this play by a popular<br />
author presents the opportunity to<br />
explore a range of dramatic techniques<br />
and emotive contemporary issues.<br />

When Francis Cassavant returns to his home town, his face<br />
horribly disfigured during World War II, he is tormented by<br />
memories of the conflict. People believe him to be a<br />
teenage war hero, not realising that his act of ‘heroism’ was<br />
in fact a suicide attempt. Back home, Francis has a mission<br />
– to get revenge on the youth leader he idolised, but<br />
betrayed him. And he’s prepared to do whatever it takes.<br />
