Northern Period Productions is a premier living history company offering historical first and third person interpretations.

If is well documented that living history is a very successful medium when used as a teaching tool. NPP has been given the highest recommendation by the Interboard History Forum, schools and museums in which it has performed.

As well as providing characters on local historical sites, NPP also brings artefacts and costumed characters into schools. This offers an alternative for schools that may have limited financial resources or difficulty in accessing historical locations.

To further facilitate this, NPP offers a cost and obligation free school/site visit to discuss with teachers how best the presentation can be tailored to enhance the period on the curriculum.
