Moving on Up has toured successfully for six years now to primary and secondary schools throughout Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, Derby City and Derbyshire to support secondary schools to support year 6 pupils, who are moving to new schools in the Autumn term.

Moving on Up uses theatre to present two identifiable characters - Georgia & Alex - using Abba music, song and action. This is followed by an participatory workshop, allowing the audience to join in offering their ideas for change.

The production tours extensively throughout July for schools to support their transition/visit days.
