Challenging production for school’s pupils

Students at a north-east Derbyshire school will perform a heart-tugging production about a girl facing emotional and psychological difficulties.
The next drama production will be Find Me - to be staged by sixth form and GCSE drama and performing arts students. 'Find Me' is a challenging play written by in the 1970's by Olwen Wymark. It tells the real life story of Verity Taylor, a girl who grew up facing a range of emotional and psychological difficulties which were misinterpreted and mismanaged at the time. The story explores her family's struggle to find support and cope with Verity's behaviour. Our production shows four actors playing the central role, each representing a different aspect of Verity's personality. It tells the story of Veritys journey from childhood to her incarceration in Broadmoor hospital whilst still in her early twenties.
