Detonate!

TAG worked in partnership with North Ayrshire Council to deliver drama workshops in 4 primary schools for P6/7 pupils. The workshops explored the stories of some of the workers employed in the factory and focussed on the man who set up the factory, Alfred Nobel, who later went on to establish the world famous Nobel Prizes.

The pupils used role-play and acting techniques to learn all about their local history and what life was like for those that worked in the dynamite factory, where explosions and injuries were commonplace. The project ran throughout November and December 2009.
