“Nutter” is an anti-bullying play suitable for Key Stages 3 and 4.
Charlton and Amber turn up at Charlie’s house uninvited. Bullying and peer pressure leads to antisocial behaviour and all three of them being dragged through The British Criminal Justice System. The real power of the play is showing that it’s not only the victims of peer pressure who suffer but also the perpetrators in gangs. All three characters eventually turn their lives around, and when a practical solution to bullying is revealed at the end of the play, we see why so many schools are now endorsing NUTTER as a real chance to address this problem.
NUTTER is a mix of verbatim drama, forum theatre, monologue, tableaux and improvisation. The police scenes are transcriptions from actual cases. The interaction with the audience covers racism, sexism, truancy, vandalism, alcohol and the causes of bullying.
Playing time is approximately one hour.
Copies of the play are £6.99 each including postage. For orders over 20 copies we can offer a discount.
