Backstage School

Exciting new school holiday sessions where you can learn a variety of backstage and technical skills!

Scroll down and choose a session for full details and to book.

Our holiday workshops for children and young people focus on the skills you need to work offstage in a theatre - that's prop making, set design, theatrical make-up, sound and light, and technical skills.

There are introductory workshops for younger years, hands on workshops for young people exploring career options, and masterclasses for young adults wanting to build their skills and experience.

Its our way of extending our (limited) work experience offer to many more people, and, introducing the next generation to some of the amazing roles offstage in the theatre.

It'll be fun too. Promise!
