Resource review: Back to the Future, The Musical education pack

Written by We Teach Drama's Lucy Bellingham, this stash of resources is a brilliant accompaniment to the vibrant new West End production of Back to the Future. Packed full of lesson objectives, practical worksheets, activities and video interviews with members of the production about the creative process, the resource helpfully links each resource to the corresponding tick-point on the drama curriculum.

The packs are split into a range of different sections: context, pre-show materials, post-show materials, a live performance review notebook for students and an outline of the careers and roles involved in the production. In addition to these, there is also a pack on the cautionary tale that the show tells – the message that failure sometimes happens before success. Each pack is extremely useful for teachers and has clearly been made by a teacher who knows what is useful in the drama classroom. Free to download from the Back to the Future: The Musical website, each section comes with full lesson plans and downloadable pre-made PowerPoint slides.
