In 1973 Bob Hescott, an actor at the Nottingham Playhouse, became involved in the Saturday morning drama workshops for children. During the next seven years this interest was developed into a number of projects inside and outside the Playhouse – Sociable Theatre, Art and Youth Opportunity Scheme, the Arrow Community Theatre Company, Pigment Multi-Racial Theatre in Education Company and the Nottingham Youth Theatre.
This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the theatre and how it can be developed for the benefit and enjoyment of everybody.
