Tailored experience

Talent Shack Schools workshops  provide a range of different sessions that can be tailored to your curriculum and current projects. We can come to your school or you can visit our theatre on Penarth Road.

From analysis of set texts to drama workshops, devising theatre to dance workshops.

The following list of our devising projects is not exhaustive; World War 2, Myths and Legends,Medieval Knight Experience, World Book Day,Shakespeare and Tudors,Environmental and   Sustainable Theatre.
