As part of the Create Festival we are excited to offer a week of theatre workshops leading to a performance on the Saturday.
Local theatre company Further Theatre deliver an exciting programme for young actors, theatre makers and all young people interested in the arts. Play in a Week is week long series of drama classes and workshops culminating in a live performance of the participant’s work in Brentwood Theatre’s auditorium in front of an invited live audience of friends and family.
Play in a week will run from Monday 8th of April till Saturday 13th, the Saturday will be half a day where we will present our performance. With our funding from Brentwood Theatre’s and Create Festival we can offer an entire week of classes, workshops and a chance to perform on Brentwood Theatre’s at the heavily reduced cost of only £60 per participant for the week.
Recommended for ages: 11-16 years old
Where’s the class bear?
Let us explain:
Jane shares her train (batteries not included)
Anmol shares his doll (wonky leg; mended several times)
Michael shares his cycle (a trusty three-wheeler)
Willow and Joe both have a go with a yo-yo
BUT
Clare NEVER EVER shares her pear
Until she loses the class bear (uh-oh) Enter Cory
Can he save the day with a story?
Join Really Big Pants on their return to the Brentwood Theatre for a glorious story of sharing, exploring, and daring, written entirely in rhyme. This interactive show encourages children to not only share their belongings and enjoy a great story, but also to explore the natural world so close to home. And there’s an accompanying longer-form picture book, illustrated by the award-winning Steve Smallman, available to buy on the day, featuring the exact text so you can relive the adventure at home!
For ages 3-7
