More info

Open Stage Young Company is for young people aged 10-18 years old and is our dedicated young company for learning disabled and/or autistic young people who love drama and performing.

Sessions are designed to spark imaginations and develop creative play. Workshops will include lots of games, teamwork, theatre skills-building and lots of fun. We will explore a range of performance styles and drama techniques as we learn how to tell exciting stories using our bodies and voices.

These sessions are led by a team of experienced staff, in a relaxed and encouraging environment to make sure everyone is fully supported.
