Holiday Workshops which run during most school holidays excluding Christmas. Our Workshops are open to everyone aged between 6 and 18 and there is no audition required. Workshops run for five days (usually Monday to Friday) and are generally 6 hours per day which can vary from (9am-3pm to 10am-4pm). In the weeks workshop we select well known musicals and films and perform alternative versions and extracts from them, information on our workshops and the chosen theme is published on our website a month before the school holiday. At the end of the week there is a small production where family and friends are welcome to attend.

The classes are taught by fully qualified music and drama teachers who work within secondary schools. After the classes are complete the workshop cumulates in an end of week one-off live performance which is open for family and friends to attend. Below is further information including prices, venue, dates and times and how to book a place.

Food & Lunch Break

Please bring your own packed lunch and enough to drink for the whole day, it's thirsty work!
