About This Event
This term, our 8 to 11s are working together to create a performance of the new play
Optimized
by Robert Evans.
The play follows the story of Joss, a school child who is volunteered to take part in a brain experiment and documentary. It explores themes of difference, creativity and individuality.
Children will have the opportunity to make new friends, build confidence and develop their creativity as they work together to create their own production for our Studio.
The term will run from the week commencing 21 September until the week commencing 7 December, with no sessions during the week commencing 26 October due to half term.
Booking for new members opens at 1pm on 30 June.
