creating a play

A one or two hour-long workshop that helps the participants to find the drama in a situation and to sustain it, develops their understanding of the physical and visual aspects of theatre-making and leaves them with a model for creating their own scripts.

poetry in performance

This hour-long workshop explores a variety of ways of bringing poetry alive in front of an audience and develops an understanding of why certain kinds of poetic writing particularly lend themselves to performance.  We help children to develop their enjoyment of words and their confidence in delivering them as we play with rhyme, rhythm, repetition and sound.

For older children this will be reinforcing their understanding of creating dramatic situations, developing character and narrative and using cliff-hangers.

We also create plays with young people in various longer-term projects and can provide special workshops that respond to a particular brief - given time to prepare!

An hour-long workshop costs £80,
a two-hour session is £120
