WONDERLAND THEATRE COMPANY

Theatre company, Wonderland Productions are running an after-school club in Roundwood Parish Hall on Fridays from 3- 4.30pm. The 13 week term will start on Friday September 25th and run until December 18th.  The club is for 7-12 year olds and the children work with Wonderland professionals over the term to create, design and perform their own play. We guide children through the process of creating a story, building characters, performance skills and theatrical elements such as lighting, costume, props and set. We don’t use scripts and the children don’t have to learn lines, instead we work on character building techniques, group work, improvisation and spontaneity.  The cost is €14 per 90 minute class. Places are kept to 15 max to ensure quality tuition.  Please contact Cliona on 087-4673858 or email cliona@wonderlandtheatre.com to register your child.
