This event is part of the Yorkshire Festival of Story.
What really happened on the fifth of November? And why does it still matter today?
This gripping retelling of The Gunpowder Plot reveals the tension, politics and high stakes behind one of Britain’s most explosive historical events.
Lois Conlan draws students into the world of Guy Fawkes and his fellow conspirators, taking them from the cobbled streets of Yorkshire to the shadowy corridors of Westminster. Told with drama and historical accuracy, this story opens the door to deeper questions about belief, justice and the power of protest.
Teachers who attend will walk away with a renewed inspiration for the power that story can have in the classroom. Those who don’t? They’ll be missing out on a story-driven teaching tool that makes complex learning stick and truly resonates with pupils.
This isn’t just a story, it’s your next great teaching asset.
Make sure you’re in the room.
