Workshops

During school holidays, the Headgate Theatre sometimes runs musical theatre or drama workshops for those aged 8 to 14 years. Packed with fun, the workshops include the opportunity to learn performance skills, make new friends, and finish with a free performance for an invited audience.

Past workshops have covered such diverse topics as working with masks (with Vamos Theatre Company), exploring a Shakespeare text, Writing Comedy or Acting for Camera.

We are always looking for new ideas to develop our workshop programmes, and are keen to hear from both facilitators and people in our acting community about topics that might provide development or be of interest in the future.

There are plans for technical theatre workshops and talks with industry professionals. Our existing volunteer team will facilitate on-site training for those who register with us as new volunteers.
