With schools currently closed, we know that families and teachers find themselves in new and unfamiliar situations. In these times, drama can be a massive help – as a creative outlet, a fun distraction, a way to exercise, or to allow young people to express what they're feeling in their current situation.

So we've gone through our practical books and plays to create Explore Drama at Home, a selection of inspiring and supportive resources to use with young people at home – whether you're a parent homeschooling or trying to keep your children occupied or engaged, or a teacher looking for ideas and materials while teaching remotely.

And to help further, you can save 30% on all of the ebooks below by entering code EXPLORE30 at checkout.

Our Explore Drama at Home selection includes:

• drama games for all ages – some for ages 3 and up, others for older children – to help with focus, creativity, imagination... and just have fun

• skills guides to help explore areas such as acting, improvisation, music, puppetry and writing – whether that's as part of structured learning, or even to discover a new skill or nurture a talent

• monologue / duologue collections and audition guides for activities, scene study, or for older children looking ahead to applying for drama school or further education

• great plays for young people to read, study and maybe even perform!

Also, check out the Coronavirus Time Capsule, a fantastic collaborative youth-theatre project from Company Three (creators of the massively popular play Brainstorm, which you'll find below). Each week, Company Three are sharing resources to help groups of young people create their own video record of what it was like to live through the coronavirus pandemic. Hundreds of theatres, schools and even families have joined them, from all around the world – it's free to take part and you can start any time, so take a look here.

This is just part of a range of plans we're offering to keep people feel engaged and supported during this period – including free creative resources, fun activities, and opportunities to make and enjoy brilliant new writing. Follow along with all of this activity here.
