Plays

Rob has written several plays on bullying, all of which have been performed by young people. There are two more plays planned for 2008. For more detaiils or to read a play excerpt see below.

Gay

Rob’s new play on the effects of homophobic bullying is set to tour Leicestershire secondary schools in early 2008.

Class of 2005

Rob was commissioned to write a play on bullying by Lincolnshire EBSS. The result was Class of 2005 which was performed by a group of pupils in Lincs primary schools to great success.

The Boy In The Photograph

The Boy In The Photograph is a powerful and emotive one man performance based on Robert's real life experiences of bullying at school. The presentation also includes an evaluation questionnaire for each pupil asking them to consider issues in the play, their own experiences and to evaluate anti-bullying policy in their school. The presentation concludes with a Q/A forum which provokes open discussion as Robert talks in greater depth about his experiences.

Banged Out

Rob was commissioned to write this play for Leicestershire Educational Psychology Service. It has since toured Leicestershire Schools in 2004, and was performed at the Leicester Haymarket Theatre in 2005.
