Unlock the Magic of Theatre with BBC Bitesize
BBC Bitesize has partnered with Hamlett Films to create an exciting new series of eighteen films specifically designed for GCSE Drama students. These films serve as engaging revision tools, expertly crafted to resonate with today’s learners and ignite inspiration in the next generation of theatre creators.
Through extensive audience testing and collaboration with renowned educational consultants, we gained invaluable insights into the ways students prefer to learn. This foundation allowed us to forge a dynamic partnership with the Royal Court Theatre, a prestigious institution dedicated to contemporary writers and pressing societal issues.

In the space, between where the actor or actors stand on stage, and where the audience is, there's a gap, and in that gap, magic happens
The series is enriched with excerpts from truly electrifying plays, alongside hands-on workshops and thought-provoking interviews featuring both celebrated and emerging talents, including designers, writers, actors, and directors. This compelling blend of content is designed to engage students deeply, making the world of theatre accessible and exciting. Here are some social teasers we created for the film series.
