A Present for the Future: drama script
This drama script cleverly links the comic portrayal of a family eating Christmas dinner together with time-travelling and provokes questions around affluence, lifestyle choices and sustainability.
The action takes place in three different years. 1945, 2008 and 2045. Performed by, for example, a drama department at a school assembly, it could make a useful introduction/conclusion to an interdisciplinary topic on eco issues/sustainability/global citizenship.
The Operation Noah website has a small number of resources suitable/adaptable for use in the classroom or at assemblies.
