✨ All performers here have a calling to create. The beauty of theatre making is that we engage the intellectual mind, a spectrum of emotions, as well as awaken the body in expression so, drama is a full experiential way of learning & creating.

Thank you for supporting us
in pursuing this calling to create.

The benefits are immense and ongoing.

When it comes to performing in front of an audience - that is just the cherry on top (for some). So performing is not the be all or end all - we experience golden moments in various forms week to week. ✨

Over the past weeks, youth group has been building confidence and creativity while learning hands-on skills in stage management, lighting, sound setup, and design. They’ve also come together as a full ensemble through collaborative music jams - supporting one another, trying new things, and discovering their strengths.

Tonight they were brave enough to invite close ones in to be an audience and witness:
- their setup and sound-check process
- their patter ( a yarn of stories between songs)
- their music jams (vocals and guitar)

✨ This is a supportive space where every young person’s contribution is valued. We’d love to celebrate their achievements together and encourage them as they continue their creative journey.

This is a glimpse into what we’ll be exploring more deeply next year!

Tuesdays 3.30-5.30pm throughout the school term

Don’t stop won’t stop! Sure, this time of year can feel tiring but doesn’t it feel uplifting and energising not only to watch theatre and hear beautiful voices, but support creative, young people ?

Don’t stop (for the year) til you get enough 🎵
