Join a professional director to devise a play in four days! This will be a fun time of imaginative creation, skills-building and joyous silliness. The week will start with some inspiration and then use different games and exercises to build skills. Best of all, the group will work together to create a brand-new show, which will then be shared with an audience of friends and family during the final session.
Theatre-Making Summer School will take place daily across Tuesday 26 August 2025 to Friday 29 August 2025, 10:00 to 13:00 each day.
