Pic ‘n’ Mix!
Open to ANYONE aged 7-21 with absolutely no previous experience required! Just come down, have fun and make friends!
We are delighted to be offering our ever-popular ‘Pic ‘n’ Mix’ Summer School again this year, featuring a range of varied workshops and activities, with a different practitioner each day! Days will involve acting, writing, making, music and much more…
This option is open to absolutely anyone and will be suitable for all ages and experience levels. You can do the whole week or any combination of days!
MONDAY – Lauren Brine (Acting and Devising)
A great start to the week as Lauren runs a day filled with fun and exciting approaches to acting! You’ll be playing lots of games – all her favourites from her time in Stage2 and beyond, that she can’t wait to share with you. Join her for a day of acting exercises, devising workshops and story making!
TUESDAY – Krish Mehta (Round the World)
We are delighted to welcome back the multi-talented Krrish – tutor, actor, writer – to share some of his favourite creative forms. Build up physical storytelling skills through Kabuki (out of the ordinary!) Theatre and elements of Bollywood Dance.
WEDNESDAY – John Godbold (Read all about it)
Our ever popular/often extremely messy making day – led by John Godbold, ex Stage2 staff member, and now on the Board. John will take a day on constructing with newspaper; good for making costumes, head-dresses, masks, dens, 3D structures, wrapping chips, anything really…
THURSDAY – Louis Delaney (Games and Improv)
A firm fixture on the Stage2 staff – workshop leader extraordinaire – Louis has years of experience as a play worker in Birmingham and Brighton, working with young people of all ages. This workshop will be filled with games, fun and endless silliness (and possibly a shadow puppet).
FRIDAY – Open Theatre (Movement and mime)
We are delighted to welcome back the acclaimed practitioners from the inclusive Open Theatre Company (opentheatre.co.uk) to teach you loads of basics – hints, tips and tricks as they explore all kinds of non-verbal communication and physical theatre, to unlock your creativity.
