Practical Drama / Theatre Workshops

Our workshops are the embodiment of experiential learning. Workshops may be used as a preparation for theatrical performance as well as an opportunity to develop personal and social skills. Workshops may therefore have a social as well as an theatrical / educational function. 

All workshops are focused on the needs of the participants so you do not need any particular acting experience or skill to participate in a workshop. All workshops are based on collaborative and co-operative work experiences.

We offer the following Theatre Workshops.

All workshops can be offered as half day (£100) or a whole day (£250)
