Theatre in Education Tours
The most recent Theatre in Education piece was ‘Life’s a Pizza’ – this was based around the subject of healthy eating and was toured to 6 primary schools in West Lothian (it also performed at the Scottish Parliament as part of the Free School Meals Campaign). The project consisted of three parts:
• a drama workshop for primary school participants
• a performance and,
• Continuous Professional Development for teachers.
WLYT have recently secured funding to revive this project – it will tour to ten schools during spring 2006.
Summary:
West Lothian Youth Theatre is a key organisation engaged in the development of the educational aspect of the youth theatre process, both within its traditional informal environment, but also within formal education, using youth theatre techniques to assist in the delivery of all areas of the curriculum.
