Marian St Theatre for Young People

Our beloved Make A Play Holiday Workshop is back as a 1 day event!

In this 1 day workshop, students will work with fellow young people and an industry Teaching Artist to create a brand new play and perform it in the afternoon for friends and family!

• Storytelling & Dramatic Structure: understanding narrative arcs, pacing, and building engaging stories for performance
• Stagecraft & Spatial Awareness: exploring stage presence, movement, and positioning within a performance space
• Collaboration & Ensemble Work: working cohesively with peers, problem-solving as a team, and contributing to ensemble storytelling
• Vocal Techniques: building and refining projection, articulation, diction, and expressive voice for performance
• Movement & Physicality: developing expressive, intentional stage movement and exploring physical characterisation
• Confidence & Performance Skills: presenting work and receiving constructive feedback, and taking creative risks in a supportive environment
