‘Stories on Stage’ Script Writing Competition 2019/20

The aims of the ‘Stories on Stage’ Drama Competition are to:

• provide students with an opportunity to collaborate on writing a drama script based on a published short story and to perform it on stage for an interschool competition; and
• provide teachers with teaching strategies and classroom activities suitable for teaching short stories, script writing and drama as part of the English Language Curriculum at the junior secondary (KS3) or senior secondary (KS4) level.

Note: The ‘Stories on Stage’ Drama Competition has been relaunched as the ‘Stories on Stage’ Script Writing Competition in this school year to be in line with the “Preparedness and Response Plan for Novel Infectious Disease of Public Health Significance” issued by the Centre of Health Protection in January 2020, which calls for the avoidance of large gatherings of people.
