2018 Community Workshops... express your interest!

When talented professional artists perform at The World Theatre, we may sometimes be able to program opportunities for community members to learn new skills from a professional in their field, or even participate in the performance.

Please express your interest as soon as you can, as these opportunities need to be organised well in advance to fit with travel plans and other tour arrangements, and booking will depend on community feedback.
