This April, the course will be split into three age groups; 7-9yrs, 10-12yrs and 13-17yrs. The Drama Workshops will be centered around the theme of… Things that go Bump in the Night! 

  • Why is Giant Thunder making such a din?
  • Is that an ogress in your garden uprooting the trees?
  • Tawhirimatea wants to whisk you away – but can he be trusted?
  • And don’t even get me started on the tooth fairy…

In this holiday workshop we’ll look at both classical and pop culture inspired spooky tales. We’ll explore what makes the characters in these tales tick, and our response to scary things.

These workshops are designed to challenge children & teenagers with new ideas about acting and performance. Immerse yourself and learn improvisation skills through a selection of high energy and fun games. Dabble in musical theatre including voice work and contemporary choreography in the beautiful surroundings of the majestic Isaac Theatre Royal.

The workshop will take place over three days culminating in a showcase of what the students have been working on, performed on the Isaac Theatre Royal stage!

You’ll supply energy, a willingness to learn, and bundles of imagination!

Wear: Comfortable clothing
