The Quest for… Guy Fawkes
Join our Time Traveller on an interactive journey back to 1605 to uncover the Gunpowder plot…
Using drama activities such as role-play and tableaux, your pupils will learn about the origins of the plot, watch Guy Fawkes as he sets up the barrels of gunpowder and become the Kings Guards as they raid the cellars in search of the conspirators!
We’re big believers in active, experiential learning so this workshop is very interactive. The children will demonstrate their knowledge and participate in debates before they get the chance to graduate as Time Travellers themselves. Do they have what it takes?
