big bangBig Bang

A low tide at Barking Creek reveals a skeleton. As the creek gives up its secrets, past and present weave together to tell a story of love and murder, history and hauntings...

Suitable for 14 year olds & up. 34 speaking parts. Written in a language that is both accessible and challenging. An ARC Theatre play.

'Imaginative...effective theatre...The language used is inventive but accessible for older KS3 or KS4 readers.' The School Librarian

www.schoolsnet.com 5 Star Rating 'The play is a sombre, haunting piece that deals with many serious issues such as remorse, guilt, culpability, teenage pregnancy, friendship and love. Intended for Key Stage 4, Big Bang is an ideal cross-curricular resource... The language used is challenging but the parts varied enough to be allocated appropriately so that children of all abilities can take part. An excellent modern play, ideal for school productions.'

Colour of justiceThe Colour of Justice

Based on the transcripts of the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry, edited by Richard Norton-Taylor

In 1993, black teenager Stephen Lawrence was stabbed to death in a racist attack by a gang of white youths. The police investigation failed to provide sufficient evidence to convict.

Based on the harrowing transcripts of the public inquiry, this is a dramatic reconstruction of the hearings which reflected the national outcry at the police's mishandling of the case.

"This book should be on every syllabus ... The incidents chosen manage to capture the essence of this horrible affair and demonstrate what the abstract concept we call racism means in all its brutal and potentially murderous reality.' The Observer, Paperback of the Week.

Carel price £7.19. (15 + £6.50 each; 30 + £5.95), 143pp.Oberon Books.
