VISIT PREPARATION

SMASHED VISIT PREPARATION

PLEASE READ THE DETAILS BELOW AND COMPLETE THE FORM SUPPLYING OUR TEAM
WITH THE INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR YOUR VISIT.

The production and workshop:
The theatre element is 30 minutes, followed by a facilitated 20 minute workshop – 50 minutes overall. (The session length can be individualised to your school if required.)

Health and Safety:
While on the school grounds, we comply with your health and safety process. In the event of a fire, evacuation or other emergency we’ll take your lead, so we require at least one staff member in the room with us at all times.

Stage and equipment

The session can be held in a school hall, auditorium, large gymnasium or similar space.
Our 'stage' set up needs a clear area a minimum of 5m deep by 8m wide. We can perform on an elevated stage or on the floor.
We bring our own equipment and sound system. We just need access to power by our stage area for our sound system.
We need access to the performance room a minimum of 30 minutes prior for setup, and 5 - 10 minutes for pack down afterwards.

Teaching support
The workshop provides valuable discussion that you can continue in your own time with students, so attendance by teachers is a valuable opportunity.

Teacher resources to support the post production work are available online here.

Evaluation
Programme evaluation is important for us, so you may have a request from us for students to complete a brief pre and post evaluation of the experience.
