A Play in A Week is a fun-filled drama workshop offering children aged 7-11 years the opportunity to devise, rehearse and perform a play under the guidance of our experienced Drama Facilitators.

Throughout the 5 days, the group will create their own version of the story inspired by the classic tale The Wizard of Oz. They 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.

Students can let their imagination run wild as they not only create their version of the story through ensemble work. Will the Lion get his courage, and the Tinman earn his heart? So much to explore in this wonderful tale and there is no limit to what can be achieved; who knows what strange and wonderful adventures will be had as they journey to the Emerald City.

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.

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. A 10% Sibling/Group discount is available if you are booking more than one place, and we also offer a further discount for current BAD students. 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.
