YARD ages 8-11

Tuesdays 4.15-6.15pm (term-time only)

The younger YARD group, aged 8-12 years, develop confidence, communication and creative skills through games, story-making, and drama exercises. As well as making new friends, they explore new ways to express themselves and share their own stories. Sessions are safe, fun and stimulate the senses!

YARD ages 12-18

Wednesdays, 5.15-7.15pm (term-time only)

The older YARD group, aged 12-18 years, develop performance skills, explore different styles and devise their own work. Working closely and collaboratively they explore the issues that matter to them and develop their own style as performers and theatre-makers. They create exciting, thought-provoking, and original work.
