Good News from Duke’s – 20th September 2024

StageEd – Blood Brothers GCSE Drama Workshop 

On Wednesday 18th September our GCSE Drama students in both years 10 and 11 got to take part in a workshop on their set text – Blood Brothers. StageEd theatre came into Duke’s to deliver the fantastic workshops and all students gained valuable insight into the play and also the performing arts industry. 

Professional actors Steve and Mike delivered the workshops and have both previously performed in the play both in the West End and on tour.  A fantastic experience for all our GCSE Drama students.
