COVID UPDATES
Managing the socially-distanced drama classroom
We have now completed the strangest summer term we have ever known. And I know that most of us are really concerned about how drama will look in the new year.
We will be running a series of webinars in the autumn term on Managing the Socially Distanced Classroom. They will be a mixture of CPD, Discussion Sessions and Practical & Interactive where you get a chance to join in!
N-Act will also be returning ‘live’ with some wonderfully socially-distanced performances in the Autumn term – as soon as we are allowed to visit! First port of call will be Essex and London.
If you are interested in being notified about any of these, please contact us to join our mailing list

N-ACT ONLINE
N-Act Online was developed during lockdown so we could still provide high quality productions and resources for schools. Here you can find links to videos and PDF documents to help you teach both online, and in a socially-distanced classroom.

Hear from some of
Our Audiences
Sharon and the wonderfully creative N-Act team explore some tough topics that empower children to help themselves stay mentally well and physically safe. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
An absolutely brilliant play which was so relevant. As I said to you, youngsters aren’t going to listen to teachers and politicians but they may listen to organisations such as yourselves.
