Get ready to roar, stomp, squeak, and fly in this exciting drama workshop designed especially for children aged 5 to 8. Young performers will explore the magical world of animals inspired by beloved films and stories such as The Lion King, Dumbo, Babe, and the Just So Stories. The week is packed with imaginative games, craft activities, and role-play that spark creativity and confidence.
Throughout the workshop, children will develop teamwork skills and build their self-esteem as they embody their favourite animal characters. The week culminates in a final performance where family and friends are invited to see the children shine on stage at the Ensemble Theatre.
This five-day workshop runs from Monday to Friday during the winter school holidays. Each day starts at 9:30 and ends at 15:30, with early drop-off available from 8:30 and after-care until 17:00 for a small additional fee. The activities include drama games, storytelling, crafts, and rehearsals leading up to the final show.
The workshop is suitable for children aged 5 to 8 who love animals and imaginative play. It provides a safe and nurturing environment for kids to express themselves and make new friends.
From Monday to Thursday, the workshop is held at Loreto Kirribilli School, located at 85 Carabella Street, Kirribilli, just a five-minute walk from the Ensemble Theatre. On Friday, the final performance and pick-up/drop-off take place at the Ensemble Theatre, 78 McDougall Street, Kirribilli.
