Detailed research identified 60 schools from across the UK with a demonstrable commitment to excellence in drama. 15 schools were selected from Manchester, Wales, Birmingham, Liverpool the North East and the South.

All were accommodated in London for a weekend long creative intervention beginning with a West End theatre visit to see Kevin Spacey in Clarence Darrow, followed by and Q & A where the project and its ethos were introduced.

The culmination of the UK version was a physical theatre workshop exploring trust, collaboration and mental agility. Teachers were also encouraged to participate with many working practically with their students for the first time in their career.
