Theatre Workshops
Our Theatre Workshops are led by experienced theatre-makers and are built on collaboration and creativity. We design our workshops to be group specific, tailored for secondary school/Transition Year programmes, university students, international students or specialty interest focused groups. Workshops may be text focused, or performance driven depending on the group. All of our workshops are immersive and interactive and require no theatre experience.
