Availability: YES

A relaxing week of fun, mime, dance, masks, fans, clowning and theatrical silliness...

In a highly supportive atmosphere, play, explore, perform, be childlike (but not childish). Recognise the absurdities, let out the hidden sides of yourself and build resilience - celebrating connections and differences. Finally, ground these experiences and take them back into everyday life.

Tailor-made to the diversity of each group, methods include physical warm-ups, movement exercises, mime, breathing, gesture - leading to the use of masks and clowning to explore and release our various personas - theatrical improvisation, and lots of dancing to music from around the world.
