UP IN YOUR HEAD
BY JON BRITTAIN
All the things you have thought of while in lockdown and more.

Note from the author: This play can be performed by any number of actors (or indeed, just by one.) Distribute the lines however feels best. And feel free to cut lines or change references that don’t feel right for you. In fact to be honest, do what you like. Just keep it snappy.
*One thing to note is the line “What does 30,000 people even look like?” This was written when that was the overall covid death toll - so that can either be kept as was or updated to reflect the current death toll.

19 of the UK’s most exciting writers have written a collection of stories for the nation to perform and record. In August 2020, we ran a Festival to celebrate ImagiNation and screened 19 films made up of submissions from people all over the UK. You can see the films on our YouTube channel.

The Imagination plays are the perfect provision to use in your school with a Drama or English class, or as something for your Drama Club to do at home via zoom while you can’t meet in person as a great way to feel connected. Get your students to record whole stories or just a line or paragraph from one of the plays. It’s up to you.  You don’t need any acting experience at all. We just want you to enjoy telling a story. ImagiNation is supported by a series of ‘How to…’ videos to give you some tips from top professionals on directing, acting, voice and filming.
