We are experienced at working with children with physical, learning, emotional and behavioural difficulties, and as such our sessions can be tailored to suit the specific needs of the group.

Each workshop lasts for a maximum of two hours and is run by two actors with teaching knowledge and experience of working with Special Educational Needs. The aim of the workshop is to progress through the entire play examining the plot and the relevant characters. The students take part in physical performance and activities as well as discussion and are encouraged to contribute ideas throughout.

Up to 35 children act out the story of each play meeting the characters and thinking through the twists and turns of the plot for themselves, discovering character’s motivations for their actions and words.

There are some physical exercises where the whole group is active as well as periods when pupils play specific roles within the play. Here discussions on what is happening and what the characters feel are encouraged.

Each workshop production includes simple costumes and props.
