Primary-aged programs ignite the imaginations of young people as they create spectacular worlds, tackle big ideas, discover new skills and unleash bucket-loads of energy in an inclusive, supportive environment.
Secondary-aged programs offer specialised intensives that develop performance skills and introduce young artists to new techniques in areas such as devising, movement, auditions, screen acting, musical theatre, and much more. See below for upcoming workshops and book your spot!

Space Invaders
A signal has been heard across the void. A strange hum. A message? A warning? Or maybe… an invitation.
In this intergalactic holiday workshop, young artists will journey into the unknown, crafting characters, worlds, and stories that take place far beyond our atmosphere. Guided by professional theatre-makers, participants will explore ideas of isolation, exploration, alien life, and what it means to call somewhere “home”.
Through collaborative devising, playful experimentation, and bold performance-making, this four-day workshop invites young people to stretch their imaginations to the outer limits with a final showing for family and friends.
Strap in. Count down. The stars are calling.

The Wild Within
A seed is stirring beneath the soil. The wind carries secrets. The trees are listening.
In this immersive holiday workshop, young artists will journey into the heart of the natural world, exploring stories of growth, survival, and transformation. With guidance from professional theatre-makers, participants will create a bold, short original performance inspired by the forests, rivers, storms, and creatures that shape our planet and ourselves.
Over four days, we’ll use movement, voice, sound, and design to ask: What happens when we stop to notice the world around us? What happens when we start to listen?
Rooted in collaboration and curiosity, this workshop will culminate in a short showing for friends and family, a glimpse into the wild worlds we’ve discovered together.
Take off your shoes. Step outside. The earth is waiting.
