For School Year 3-6

Workshop times: 9.30 am to 4 pm (with performance at 4 pm on Wednesday)

Cost: £180 per child (sibling and early bird discounts available)

A Play in 3 days is a fun-filled drama workshop offering children in Junior School (Year 3 to Year 6) the opportunity to devise, rehearse and perform a play under the guidance of our experienced Drama Facilitators.

Throughout the 3 days, the group will create their own version of The Midnight Gang inspired by this warm, funny Dahlesque tale of friendship and adventure. Is the evil Matron really a witch and what can the gang do to get past her? Is the Porter friend or foe and what is his name? So many questions to explore. Children will develop characters, learn stagecraft skills, devise scenes to build their play for a performance on the final afternoon for families to enjoy. This process is designed to develop creative thinking, drama, and improvisation skills and build confidence and teamwork. Children can let their imagination run wild as there is no limit to what can be achieved; who knows what strange and wonderful adventures the children can go on over the 3 days.

Not only will they receive guidance and help from our Facilitators but they will be given props and costumes to help create the world of their play. They may even have the chance to wear their pyjamas to the workshop!

It will be a few days of building fun memories, learning new skills, and making new friends.

Due to limited spaces available, it is recommended that parents/guardians book early to avoid disappointment. Early bird and Sibling discount are available, simply email us at [email protected] for promo codes and booking information.

All children will need to bring is their willingness to get stuck in, their imagination, comfy clothing, and plenty of food and drink to keep their energy levels up.
