I purchased Titanic, The Ship of Dreams about 6 years ago from their stand at an Education Show. The script was first used with a group of adults with learning difficulties at an FE college. They loved the music, able to learn most of the words with ease and found it really easy to sing along to the disc. We also based some of our curriculum studies on the Titanic and produced a substantial project together with the art pack, being full of ideas with easy to follow instructions. I adapted some of the script to meet the learners needs and felt comfortable doing this without causing any infringement of rules etc. The performance was a huge success and the group had great fun performing it. My second voyage with the Ship of Dreams was with a youth amateur theatre group. Once again they found the script and music uncomplicated and at their level. This demonstrates how well the scripts supplied by Educational Musicals, meet various ability levels and is ideal to show differentiation. We performed 2 shows to a full house and shed a few tears during the final song - the scripts tick all the emotional boxes. I shall definitely be purchasing more scripts in the future - a great resources for teachers, amateur theatre groups church groups etc. A great way to tell a historic story.
