To ensure that everyone can enjoy the creative fun this half term Norwich Theatre has introduced a Pay What You Can approach for its October half term activities. 

Families can choose to take part with a range of options to book their half term activity: 

  • Make the suggested donation to help keep our holiday work going. 
  • Add an extra amount to your donation, which will go towards free activities for families who need them most. 
  • Just come and play! Join in for free if you’d like. 

The half term activities are part of Norwich Theatre’s Creative Families programme, which offers fun, friendly sessions for the whole family. Thanks to the Geoffrey Watling Charity, the Alan Boswell Group Charitable Trust, and the Simon Gibson Charitable Trust, free places have been made possible. 

Sam Beal Creative Engagement Project Manager at Norwich Theatre, said: “We believe that creative experiences should be available to all. The arts enrich lives, inspire creativity, and bring us together as a community. We want everyone, regardless of their financial situation, to have the opportunity to enjoy these enriching experiences. We hope offering Pay What You Can will make it easier for every family to experience the joy of creativity together this half term.”

Stories that Move (30 Oct) is inspired by the huge contributions and cultural impact made by the Windrush Generation and their families. This workshop is for children aged 5 – 10 and their grown-ups. 

Ready to unleash your inner playwright and see your play come to life… in a day?! Try Norwich Theatre’s Play in a Day (1 Nov), which is a fun approach to devising a piece of theatre. Participants will delve into creating a brand-new piece and be guided through acting, directing, movement and physical theatre. The workshop for ages 7-10 is in the morning, and the workshop for the ages 11 – 15 is in the afternoon – no previous performing experience is required. 

Come and enjoy Sensory Stories for SEND, where the group will be guided through a journey of imagination and play in a relaxed environment using an array of sensory materials and props. Designed for disabled and neurodiverse young people, it will be accessible to non-verbal children. This session is for children aged 7 – 11 and their grown-ups.
