Publisher Description

Six exciting new plays by some of the best artists working in the UK today written with and for young people. Created as part of Wonder Fools' international participatory project Positive Stories for Negative Times which has reached over 8000 young people from 16 different countries including UK, South Africa, India, USA, Canada, Italy and Sweden.



Co-commissioned by Wonder Fools and the Traverse Theatre these six plays offer a variety of stories, styles and forms for ages 10 to 25. These original and innovative plays are:



The Day the Stampers United by Sara Shaarawi

Ages 12+



Ms Campbell's Class Fifth Period by Leyla Josephine

Ages 14+



And The Name for That Is?... by Robert Softley Gale

Ages 16+



Are You A Robot? by Tim Crouch

Ages 10+



Revolting by Bryony Kimmings

Thanks for Nothing by The PappyShow with Lewis Hetherington

Ages 11+



Positive Stories For Negative Times was initially created in response to the lack of physical spaces for young people to participate in creative activities due to the pandemic, and instead allowing them to come together and be inspired through making new work. The project has now grown into a programme of work that includes hundreds of participating groups across the world, a youth board who dramaturg all the commissioned plays from inception to final draft, a continuing professional development programme for group leaders and four regional Scottish youth theatre festivals taking place in summer 2023.



Supported by Creative Scotland, the Gannochy Trust, Hugh Fraser Foundation, William Syson Foundation, Trades House of Glasgow Commonweal Fund and Gordon Fraser Foundation.
