Teacher Survey 2010

1. What do teachers want from their Playhouse experience?

Hello!
I'm Alison Warren and, as well as being a Head of Drama, I'm also the Teacher in Residence at Salisbury Playhouse. I want to be a link between teachers at all levels and the Playhouse to see how we can support each other. We're trying to find out how we can improve what we do for teachers here at Salisbury Playhouse. Please give us as much information as you can - good or bad! Answer by the 17th September and you'll be entered in the Golden Ticket Draw for a pair of tickets for three different productions in our Autumn season - all for 10 minutes work.
Do contact me via the Playhouse if I can be of more help.
Ali Warren
