This was the quiz that I hosted for our annual Drama Department Dinner. 5 rounds, takes approximately 45 mins/1 hour or so depending on numbers and method of scoring (we used the teacher table to score). Our students are placed into different Theatre Companies (drama houses) for various events that they partake in each year.
Round 1 - General Theatre, Film & TV
Round 2 - Music Round - Name Musical & Song
Round 3 - School Drama Department (Make these your own!)
Overview of Resources:
These resources are for a complete quiz event.
Included:
Quiz Questions
Quiz Answer Sheets
Please note:
You will have to supply the music for the music round (Round 4). You can source these on Youtube / Spotify. Ensure you cut off with the last line prompt or it may give away the title of the song or some other key piece of information.
You will also have to tailor the questions in Round 3 to your own school’s drama department. You can use mine as a basis.

Some of the resources from Arts Award directly are not very easy to use nor are they easy to communicate to or made accessible for young people. Therefore, I have created this adaptable resource to help you plan when you will deliver your Arts Award throughout the academic year. I have been assessing the Arts Award for over 4 years now - Bronze, Silver & Gold.
Overview of Resource:
In my school Year 10 take Bronze, Year 11 take SIlver and Years 12/13 take Gold.
Year 10 complete Bronze in the Autumn and Spring terms, then start Silver in the Summer term and finish it in Year 11 in the Autumn and Spring terms prior to GCSE exams. Year 12/13 have a choice to complete it over three terms or over 5 terms.
This mapping template is fully adaptable to your circumstances, term dates and pressures, so feel free to adapt however you see fit to!
Included:
Academic Year Mapping for Arts Award (Bronze, Silver & Gold)

I created these posters to add a contemporary feel to my studios and classrooms. They give a real boost to creativity and imagination for my students, especially when they are creatively blocked or stuck. These work well in A4 or A3 as posters / visual displays, or I have also used them as handouts for group devising as A4 and A5 sizes, individually laminated or combined to make a booklet.
Included:
1x Powerful Photographs - Devising Stimuli Poster
Please note:
This resource is also part of a bundle / collection of all devising posters.
