Play in a Day (7-10)
This event is in the past
What is it?
Play in a Day is a fun, friendly exploration of theatre making, encouraging creativity, imagination and confidence through performance. Participants will warm up with games and exercises, before delving into the piece, through acting, directing, movement and physical theatre; each participant will be encouraged to input into the outcome, and together the group will produce a short, original piece of theatre, to share with their families.
What will I get from taking part?
Taking part in drama-based exercises encourages young people to work well together, whilst enhancing self-expression, confidence, literacy and language skills – and of course is great fun!
Play in a Day is a fun and accessible approach to devising a piece of theatre, with no pressure, and no previous performing experience required. The session is about enjoyment, encouraging creativity and collaboration.
Pay What You Can
Every session is open to everyone, with options to fit:

Who will be leading the project?
Play in a Day is led by Norwich Theatre creative practitioner Tom Scudamore.
Do I need any particular skills or experience to take Part?
