Why theatre, why now

Children learn to answer.
Rarely to express.

Education isn't just about what children know. It's about how they express ideas, communicate with others, think creatively and work together.

These abilities need practice. In a packed academic day, children rarely get to learn through movement, imagination, storytelling and collaboration.

So theatre shouldn't be a once-a-year activity. It should be a subject, every week, with a syllabus that builds year on year.

The syllabus

2,500 years of theatre. One classroom.
