Holiday Workshops

Holiday Workshops

For students with busy terms
- join us in the school holidays!

Our terms focus around two different structures: Technique terms, and performance terms! With guidance from their tutor, students will work through ideas inspired by a theme and spend each week rehearsing or learning new techniques. The aim for performance workshops is to introduce the children to performing and creating ideas for performance. At the end of term children will have the opportunity to perform for family members and friends.

These “showcases” are club specific, but the children also get opportunities to perform with our other Drama groups throughout the academic year too; offering a nice balance between working and performing on a small and large scale!

To boost confidence levels, teamwork, social skills and self esteem.

To help children explore and develop ideas

To take an interest in their activities and encourage them to achieve high standards with their performances!
