VIRTUALLY THEATRE The Bulmershe School takes you to theatre…
VIRTUALLY THEATRE Today we are launching a brand new theatre club so that students can enjoy amazing theatre from the comfort of their own home. Due to the current situation we are unable to take students to Live Theatre and this is a vital experience that supports learning and develops cultural understanding. To ensure our students do not miss out the school have invested in an amazing resource, called Digital Theatre+, and over the coming months students in English and Drama will use the site to watch productions that will support their understanding of the curriculum. KS 3 students will watch the productions as part of their lessons over the year but GCSE and A-Level students will be given log-in details and they will be able access productions and resources at home that will directly support revision and learning. To further the use of this resource and take advantage of the ever increasing amount of Live Streamed theatre we have decided to launch a virtual club that students can access at home. In the “Virtually Theatre” Club students will be encouraged to explore the Digital Theatre world and productions that are available.
WHAT IS VIRTUALLY THEATRE? • Students will access the “club” by joining a Google Classroom. • To begin with, the productions will be aimed at GCSE and A-level students but as the months progress we will include KS 3 appropriate content. • We will continue to give you updates about the Virtually Theatre productions and hope that it can be a resource for the entire Bulmershe Community to enjoy. • Every month a different member of staff will create a video and introduce a production that they love and the details to access it. • Students can then simply choose to watch the production in their own time. Those, who wish to, will also have the option to engage in discussion and responses to the production either alone or with other members of the club.
WHAT DO I NEED TO JOIN? • Simply join the Google Classroom below and follow the instructions. • Please do not just see this as a Drama or Performing Arts Club; the educational and emotional value in watching theatre is enormous. • The future staff hosts will not just be Performing Arts staff and in the future we hope that students can host and share their favourite production too.
