Collins National Theatre Plays - Scary Play
10 year old Kal and his mates (Mal, Ro, Tilly, Jaz and Boff) are having a sleep-over round Kal's to celebrate his birthday. As the night draws in, the kids indulge in an age old pastime. Scaring the living daylights out of each other.Kal tells the story of a local house, said to be haunted by the ghost of a man who once lived there with his ageing mother and his pet monkey. As a boy, Kal's Dad and his mates snuck into the very same house, only to come screaming out again when they found something absolutely terrifying in the upstairs bedroom. Kal challenges his friends to do the same, and with varying degrees of reluctance, they disappear into the night. Meanwhile, Kal's much put upon 8 year old sister, Lou, has been listening at the door. Despite the fact that Kal told her it was his sleep-over and babies weren't allowed to take part, Lou sneaks after the gang. Scary Play follows the ten year olds (and Lou) as they creep into the haunted house and each faces up to their own unique fear.

Ruckus in the Garden
Ruckus in the Garden is a very funny look at the pressures of being a teenager in school today. The play is accompanied by teaching materials containing fantastic ideas for drama work, as well as other activities designed to answer English Framework and NC objectives. When Riverdale Comprehensive and St Nectan's Grant Maintained find themselves in the garden of Cecil Fortescue on a school trip, a ruckus is inevitable. It's customary that when these two schools meet , violence ensues; and many of the pupils are relishing the opportunity of a scrap. However magic and mystery wait amongst the topiary in the form of Cupid who brings about transformations and confusions, both romantic and hilarious. With a modern and accessible nod towards A Midsummer Night's Dream, this play is a fast-paced, thoughtful and very entertaining look at the trials of being fifteen.
The Elephantom

But her grandmother happens to have a menagerie of phantom pets herself, so she knows just who to go to for help—the shopkeeper at Spectral & Son. He gives her a box. . . . Does it hold the solution?
Greenland
What on earth is happening to our planet? And who knows what to do? Certainties are few: every living thing is related to every other living thing; our actions have consequences; change is continual and inevitable. The National Theatre asked four of the country's most exciting writers to investigate. The team spent six months interviewing key individuals from the worlds of science, politics, business and philosophy to create a fast-paced and provocative new play. Greenland premiered at the National Theatre, London, in February 2011.
