Game Over tells the harrowing true story of teenager Breck Bednar, who was groomed over the internet and brutally murdered on 17 February 2014 by a supposed 'friend' that he met online.

Breck''s story is told in Mark''s potent verbatim style, using the words of his family, friends and the killer.

It''s a shocking but deeply powerful play, with a unique 21st-century message.

The play is particularly suitable for 'socially distanced' or online performances in students' own homes and can be easily adapted to suit this medium.

Suitable for: Key Stage 3/4, GCSE, BTEC, A-Level to adult
Duration: 75 minutes approximately?
Cast: 24 characters total. 8 male, 9 female and 7 male or female.
The play is suitable for a large cast and multi-roling is also possible.

"[A] chilling and harrowing tale, skilfully written using the words of Breck's family, friends and his killer. It deals with the potentially disastrous effects of social media and how to keep safe online by recognising the signs of grooming and exploitation."
Vivienne Lafferty, Trustee National Drama
