Education at the Playhouse

We aim to ensure the Playhouse is a useful theatre resource for members of the local community. Making the most of our dynamic visiting companies, directors and theatre technicians, we will be developing more projects, workshops and resource materials for you in the coming seasons. We are excited about becoming an Arts Awards Welcome Venue and plan to offer young people access to a diverse range of theatre events and skills.

NATIONAL CONNECTIONS 2011

The Pied Piper re-imagined;  the aftermath of genocide in Rwanda; witches in 17th century Norfolk; a giant baby on the rampage; an extraordinary day in an ordinary school. Ten thrilling and varied new plays, created by brilliant writers for young actors to perform. 

The plays in the 2011 Connections portfolio offer a huge variety of stories and styles to ignite the imagination of young casts and creative teams. The writers commissioned by the NT have worked with young people across the country and beyond - from the Shetland Isles to Devon, from Wiltshire to Manhattan - to create plays which respond to young people's ideas and concerns, and extend their view of the world. Themes are both teenage and universal --  ambition, dashed hopes, fear and confidence, loyalty and betrayal. These new plays embrace a huge range for their inspiration: they plunder classics and imagine the future. We look forward to seeing them brought to life by young companies across the country.

All shows performed at The Garage and Norwich Playhouse.
Dates to be confirmed in April/May

To find out how to take part go to the National Theatre website.
