Audio play “The Fall of Haithabu and Danewerk – for World Heritage through space and time.”

A.P. Møller-Skolen (Denkmark), Domschule Schleswig (Germany)

A group of older students produced an audio play that is explicitly aimed at a young audience and emphasises the urgency of taking action. As a way to communicate this urgency to younger students, they wrote and recorded an audio play in which five school children visit Haithabu and the Danewerk in 2025 and travel back in time in order to prevent the destruction of the World Heritage Site that has happened in our time. The audio play makes the connections between the past, present and future tangible in a powerful way. Will they succeed in changing the future? An audio play for and by students.
