Zoë and other leading actors voice concern about GCSE drama

18 April 2016 17:18

In a letter to The Sunday Times, published on 17 April, Zoë and a number of other leading actors have voiced their concern about the potential impact of new GCSE drama courses that don't require students to attend live performances.

The letter argues that recordings of plays are not adequate substitutes for experiencing 'magical' live theatrical events. It emphasises that the new GCSE courses may lead to 'pupils missing out on invaluable social, cultural and artistic experiences'.

Among the other signatories are Zoë's My Family co-star, Robert Lindsay, and teachers' association National Drama.
