Young people are being offered a unique opportunity to produce a show from scratch at our week-long summer school.
Open to 11 to 18-year-olds, the workshop-style event takes place from Monday 5 to Saturday 10 August and culminates in an evening performance of Paradisium at The Georgian Theatre Royal on Saturday 10 August.
During the week, students will participate in a wide range of activities, including devising, acting and performing skills. The final showcase performance will focus on the Ancient Greek myth of Medusa in a heart-warming retelling that is sure to melt any stone heart.
The summer school will be led by our Youth Theatre Officer, Ed Batchelor.
“This is the perfect activity for anyone wanting to do something a bit different during the summer break,” said Ed Batchelor. “No previous performing experience is necessary and the emphasis will definitely be on having fun but with the added excitement of a live public performance.
“If previous years are anything to go by then the standard of the final show is invariably high and is always an extremely rewarding experience for all those taking part,” he added.
Places are still available and the cost for the whole week has been held at £70. The workshops run each day from 10am to 4pm.
The Saturday showcase performance will take place on Saturday 10th August at 7pm with tickets available to the public at £8 each.
