Entitled Positive Stories for Negative Times, the programme has already seen 107 groups from 51 schools, theatres and community groups sign up in the six weeks since it was announced. The project was conceptualised in direct response to the lack of physical spaces for young people to participate in creative activities currently and acknowledges the impact this may have on mental health and wellbeing.
Upon signing up, schools and other groups will have free access to the five new plays, including a framework of how to rehearse, direct and record the works, with specific guidance on how to deliver the project in total lockdown. Teachers and group leaders will also be provided with a handbook to help them deliver the work either in-person or remotely.
