​​
-
Take part in an inspiring memory-gathering project (taking about one hour) and a short optional homework project, using free resources provided.
-
Contribute to the creation of a unique play that will be performed by children nationwide.

Join our nationwide project that delves into the memories and impact of the pandemic through a collaborative process between playwright Danusia Samal and Year 5-8 pupils from across the UK. This initiative will first gather children's stories and perspectives, then transform them into a musical production to be performed by participating schools and youth theatres in summer 2026. Our goal is to celebrate a generation of children that has faced significant challenges, showcasing their brilliance, resilience and creativity in a new way. Please sign up your school or youth club to be a part of this exciting project!
