Nick Bilbrough • Artistic Co-ordinator

I’m a teacher, teacher trainer and author of methodology books for teachers. I started the Hands up Project in early 2015 after running a British Council training course on storytelling for teachers from Gaza. These days I’m responsible for organising everything to do with remote theatre; any events which we do related to this, and our EU funded and British Council funded Remote Theatre Projects. I'm also currently writing the Remote Theatre Handbook and editing several books of remote plays, some by Palestinian children and others by well known people in the fields of ELT and theatre. I think my proudest Hands Up Project moment was when I was able to present our first book, ‘Toothbrush’, to the children in Palestine whose plays were included there.
