My City (City of Culture)

This Play in a Day is for up to 35 KS2 or 3 pupils. The pupils will work with a facilitator throughout the day and have the opportunity to share a short performance to an audience of their choice at the end of the day.

My City is a BRAND NEW Play in a Day for 35 KS2 pupils.

This Play in a Day is all about your city! It is a great way to explore your local culture and heritage and encourage discussions about local history and careers.

My City covers lots of different topics such as History, SMSC, PSHC and Careers whilst making it relevant to your city and your school!

We currently have My City scripts written for these cities but we can write a brand new script for your city too!

My City Manchester was launched at Our Ladys High School where they kindly hosted 3 different local primary schools. Here is what they had to say about the day:

"Manchester is a thriving, vibrant & colourful city, steeped in History and the new ‘Play In A Day’ – ‘Manchester – My City’  captures the spirit from all those centuries ago to the present day as we travelled backwards and forwards  through the centuries. So much information and so many facts learnt in such a fun way. One of my  favourite parts…’Manchester rose like a phoenix from the flames’. That is the true spirit of Manchester…"
