London's Burning (A live interactive theatre show)
David Fisher
Summary
London’s Burning tells the story of The Great Fire of London with scenes, games, and a lot of interaction. The audience learn about the fire while being encouraged to put themselves in the shoes of different characters from the story. This leads them to think critically about topics that are also very relevant to us today. The show is a great practical example of how principles of entertainment can support effective language teaching.
