Theatre for GCSE education

Hello,
I am running a professional theatre company that are thinking of approaching secondary schools and performing the play that they are studying in English GCSE. We are also going to offer a workshop. Live professional theatre is a way a lot of students can truly begin to understand and interpret the text. We believe this will improve there language skills and will ultimately improve their grades.
How much would you pay for your child to watch their GCSE studied play within school and receive a workshop?

Iirc we've paid up to about £15 per child for similar. Doubt all that goes to the provider though. Do bear in mind the texts will vary from one syllabus to another.

I know my DD was advised not to watchable DVD of the film of her GCSE text because of wasn't absolutely faithful to the text and so might confuse more than it helps.

She watched lots of different plays and productions, most came to the school, to help English and Drama understanding generally. For those we paid £5-£25 (the latter being at the local city big theatre)

If you approach schools in writing please get someone to check your spelling, grammar and sentence structure - your OP is pretty poorly written and I wouldn't employ you based on that.

For what it's worth our local theatres all had matinee productions of the plays local schools did, cost about £7 per child plus coach fare.
