Our Summer Theatre Week is an exciting residential theatre school designed for young people and adults to explore their theatrical creativity within a theatre setting. Across the week, participants will live, create and perform together - developing their acting craft, devising original work, exploring movement and voice, and building confidence both on and off stage. Guided by professional theatre-makers in a supportive, inspiring environment, you will leave the week equipped with industry skills, increased confidence in performing and new friends with a shared passion for theatre.
The Courses: Playmaking (14-18) A fun, high-energy course for young creatives to build theatre skills, boost confidence, and make bold, exciting work together. Stage by Stage (18+) Build confidence and craft as you work staging a play, focusing on text, technique, and powerful performance. Shaking up Shakespeare (18+) Reimagine the Bard with fresh eyes through bold, playful approaches to voice, character and playing Shakespeare. Step into Clowning (18+) Get silly, take risks, and sharpen your clowning craft with games, physical play, and laugh-out-loud sessions
