Adventure Story: Drama Workshop

Ideal for 7-12-year-olds

The Event
Adventure story is a fun drama workshop inspired by classic adventure stories such as Treasure Island, reimagined in a modern, inclusive way. The children will become explorers, pirates, ship captains, and treasure hunters as they journey through imaginative worlds using drama games, movement, storytelling, and group performance, while creating their own characters, maps and stories.

Through role-play and games the children will work together to overcome challenges such as crossing stormy seas, solving riddles, escaping traps, and discovering hidden treasure. At the end of the session families will have the opportunity to watch the story come to life.

The workshop is designed to be accessible and inclusive and suitable for a wide range of ages and confidence levels.
