In-Schools Program

After-school drama workshops delivered in primary schools across the ACT.

About Our In-Schools Program

We work with primary schools across the ACT to provide quality after-school drama programs.

Run with each school term, participants work with a professional Workshop Artist on a weekly program that concludes with an end of term performance for parents and friends.

  • Discover new skills.
  • Build creativity and confidence.
  • Explore creative expression, collaboration, improvisation and performance.
  • Work as an ensemble to create a piece of original theatre.
  • Perform for family and friends at school at the end of each term.

Our Schools Program is delivered in line with government social distancing requirements and our COVIDsafe plan.

Enrolments for our Schools Program align with each school term.
