Next Gen Publications

About us

Tired of puerile, patronising and poorly written school shows with little relevance to today’s young performers? Sick of cynical adaptations of Broadway shows that offer nothing new to young minds, save watered down versions of pre-existing or dated theatre works?

So are we.

That’s why, at Next Gen, we decided to create the kind of show that kids actually want to perform. Interesting characters, innovative storytelling and contemporary and exciting music combine to create a theatrical experience that will remain with your pupils long after the house lights go up.
Quality meets creativity.

We here at Next Gen aim to provide a friendly and helpful service to schools, and a catalogue of fresh, contemporary musicals to entertain pupils and audiences alike.

Every title in our catalogue is assessed for quality to ensure that it meets the exacting standards required by you, ourselves, and the market in general. Because teachers, and pupils, deserve the very best when it comes to school shows.

Next Gen - where quality matters.
