Unleashing Your Imagination

Fun games and creative drama exercises for children – learn how to create and tell silly stories through theatre!

The workshop will be run by Joanna Holden who is an Associate at Told by an Idiot Theatre company. She first worked with them on the streets of Portobello market many moons ago and most recently in The Ghost Train at Manchester Royal Exchange.

Told by an Idiot explores the human condition through theatre that is bigger than life. Through playful collaborative writing, anarchic physicality and a comedic sensibility they create genuinely spontaneous experiences.

For children aged 7-11
