Instead of teaching one acting method or merely leading the group, our workshop artists create a space where everyone can co-create together as artists. This can involve the workshop artists offering provocations, feedback and artistic responses based on equal exchange.
Our workshops offer a range of theatrical styles and explorations, asking our students to excavate everything and become well rounded performers and theatre-makers.
Teens can expect to:
- Engage in physical and vocal warmups for actors
- Build a sense of ensemble through physical kinaesthetic exercises
- Improvise based on themes, events, situations and locations
- Tell stories, investigating personal connection to universal themes
- Write scripts and build scenes as individuals and with groups
- Interpret, adapt and update existing texts
- Create, rehearse and refine performances
Each term the group will work together to build a short outcome to share with an invited audience.
At the end of the year the teens perform their work in a performance called Hatched at St Martins Theatre.

We acknowledge the barriers to the arts that exist for many young people because of disability, cultural difference or social disadvantage and we offer scholarships and programs to overcome these barriers.
