The Glass Menagerie Special Offer

Designed specifically for Drama and English students at National 5 and Advanced Higher levels, these events offer rare insight into the creative process behind a live professional production, helping to build deeper understanding and critical response skills, particularly for Advanced Higher Drama Assignment Question 1, the National 5 Critical Essay Question, and the Higher practical assessment in acting, directing, and design.

These sessions are free for schools that book to come along to the show, and we can tailor them to specific requests where possible.

The sessions:

Teacher Insight Session (for teachers)

Join members of the Creative Team for an informal session at Dundee Rep Theatre. You’ll get an exclusive look at the model box, hear about the team’s creative intentions and approach to the production, and have the chance to ask questions that can directly inform your teaching.

Inside the Rehearsal Room (for pupils)

Students will step inside the creative process as selected scenes are brought to life in a live rehearsal setting. The session will explore:

  • The director’s rehearsal approach
  • Actor and character development
  • Design elements, including access to the model box and set
  • A Q&A to support analytical and evaluative writing
Post-Show Workshop (delivered in your school)

Delivered by The Glass Menagerie Associate Director, this interactive workshop brings the production into your classroom.
Through practical exploration and discussion, pupils will unpack the director’s and designers’ choices, delve into character and thematic interpretation, and build skills for analysing performance and staging.
