HOLIDAY CLUBS
Our Play-In-A-Week Summer Holiday Drama Clubs
Not your average summer clubs…
Drama games, improvisation, line-learning, story-telling, rehearsals, movement, possibly even some stage fighting… Our fun-filled and activity-packed drama clubs in the summer holidays are designed to get you up on your feet and making theatre. They’re also a great way to meet some new friends. Each week we’ll rehearse our own version of a play, ending with an afternoon performance for family and friends. We have two weeks of clubs for two different ages.
