Summer Holiday Club: Theatre Magic! (Age 7-10)

Summer Holiday Club: Theatre Magic!

Norwich Theatre is the place to be this summer! Our new Summer Holiday Club is a great place to meet new friends, build new skills, and ignite your imagination through the magic of theatre. From wish-granting genies to ‘Wicked’ witches, anything is possible with the magic of theatre! Incredible stories are brought to life on stage through movement, drama and stagecraft, and in this week, you will get the chance to sample it all in a fun, friendly and inclusive environment.

Over five fun-filled days, children in age groups of 7-10 and 11-13 will dive into the fun of theatre-making. Each day features masterclass workshops led by professional theatre makers and Norwich Theatre’s team, as well as a host of fun games, backstage tours, activities and exercises designed to spark their creativity and provide lots of fun.

This club is suitable for anyone aged 7-13. The focus of this week is on having fun, growing confidence, and exploring how theatre can unlock a world of imagination. You don’t need any previous drama experience.

What to expect:

• 5 days of high-quality creative activities, designed to ensure all children can explore their creativity, whether you prefer to make magic behind the scenes or are a confident performer.
• A safe, friendly and welcoming environment for all children to thrive, have fun and make new friends.
• The opportunity to try new skills in a working theatre, getting hands-on with lighting and sound equipment, designing sets and costumes, and devising, moving and performing.
• A friendly and approachable team of qualified staff who are all DBS checked, on hand to support your child’s wellbeing and creativity.
• Families will be invited into the studio on Friday to celebrate all the ideas and inspiration from the week.
