Welcome to your very own theatre challenge designed especially for young creatives in Years 3 and 4. This engaging workshop invites children to explore their storytelling and performance skills in a supportive and fun environment. Whether your child loves writing, acting, or enjoys being part of a creative team, this event offers a fantastic opportunity to develop their talents.
Participants will be divided into small teams and given three key elements on the first day: a prop, a line of dialogue, and a surprise element that adds an exciting twist. Guided by an experienced ATYP professional, children will learn the fundamentals of creating new theatre work including character development, storytelling techniques, and performance skills. The workshop culminates in a short play performance shared with family and friends, providing a wonderful sense of achievement.
The workshop runs over two days, Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th July, from 9:30am to 3:30pm each day. It is held at ATYP's venue located at Pier 2/3, 13A Hickson Road, Dawes Point, NSW, 2000, on Eora Country. An optional aftercare service is available until 5:00pm on Monday for an additional fee. Early bird pricing is available until Tuesday 10th June.
The workshop takes place at the Australian Theatre for Young People (ATYP) venue in Dawes Point, easily accessible by public transport and close to the Sydney CBD. The location is on Eora Country, and ATYP respectfully acknowledges the traditional owners of the land. Parents can comfortably drop off and pick up their children at this well-equipped and welcoming venue.
Participants should bring their energy and creativity as the workshop involves active collaboration and performance preparation. A one-off booking fee applies to all purchases. The workshop is designed for children in Years 3 and 4, ensuring age-appropriate content and activities. Family and friends are invited to attend the final performance on Tuesday afternoon.
