From page to stage 

Imagine any text...one creative lesson....in a day your pupils will remember forever. Newfound Theatre offers bespoke packages on any set text for both primary and secondary. We will bring in an acting troupe  and look in depth at scenes by acting them out and workshopping them.We can focus on historical context and authorial purpose and analysis of characters and themes. Past examples are Shakespeare, A Taste of Honey, An Inspector Calls, Of Mice and Men and Oliver Twist.

Performing arts 

We can offer various solutions for performing arts including tailored sessions of specialist theatre techniques or on practitioners such as: Brecht, Stanislavski, Boal, Berkoff, Mamet etc. All our tutors work professionally in theatre so the experience can be linked to the workplace. We can create a bespoke package for your class. 

Shakespeare  

This minimalist production of The Tempest is produced in association with "Theatre By Numbers"  Using only a suitcase, physical theatre and five performers we come to your school hall and tell this amazing story of treachery, love and magic.
