Here at EHd we are big fans of the playwright Dennis Kelly (The man behind DNA and the RSC adaptation of Matilda). His new play is up to his usual standards and would be great to use with Year 7s. Learn More

A great choice for key stage three.

Suggested by the poem "Jabberwocky", the play is set in the fantasy world of Lewis Carroll's 'Alice' stories. Shortlisted in Scottish and Welsh playwriting competitions, one judge commented "it has the same delightfully confusing dialogue of Carroll's work and brings back fond memories of reading these stories as a child. Wonderfully cryptic nonsensical moments as well as moments of philosophical clarity made me smile and wonder. This play will go down a treat with children and adults alike."
An ideal play for young people to perform, or for adults to perform to a young audience. Learn More

This play is as strange and comical as it sounds and is definitely one that you should explore with your students.
