Be part of something inspiring: Music and Drama Education Expo 2023

With something in the region of 2,500 music and drama teachers expected through the door across the two days, we are about to embark on the process of putting together a programme of workshops and seminars to inspire them with ideas to take home to their classrooms and drama studios.

And this is where you come in: the programme is built on a core of sessions proposed to us through a call for papers which launched online on 2 May.

Speakers at the Expo year on year are a wonderful mixture of returning stars and new faces. In the drama stream, we have school drama teachers, workshop leaders, the artistic directors of independent drama companies and charities, specialists in SEND, in primary and early years, and in Further and Higher Education. Some teachers bring students to demonstrate, many get the delegates up on their feet and engaging practically – crawling around the floor as Tempest–tossed characters, trying out full–face masks, or stage combat.
