Providing exceptional live theatre and drama education for your primary school students and teachers.
Theatre is more than entertainment — it's how children find their voice, their courage, and their place in a story bigger than themselves. Our live performances, interactive drama workshops and curriculum-aligned programs are built especially for primary schools, helping students playfully build skills in drama and social-emotional learning, one story at a time.
"One of the best excursions I have been to. The students absolutely loved it. The show was engaging, the workshop was fun for the children. It's a fun atmosphere that caters to the needs of all our students which is so helpful. Our special unit students attended their first excursion and it was amazing for them, so thank you. "

2. SHOW + DRAMA WORKSHOP
Extend the experience with a post-show drama workshop, delivered by our experienced teaching artists. Through story, play and movement, students build creativity, confidence and communication — with social-emotional learning woven through every activity. Ideal for classes, year groups or whole-school events.
3. SHOW + 8 WEEK DRAMA PROGRAM
A full term of drama (8 weeks), starting with a live show and continuing with weekly lessons at your school. Curriculum-aligned across Drama, English, PDHPE and SEL, the program builds real skill in making, performing and appreciating drama. Three ways to deliver it:
Facilitated entirely by our teaching artists (teachers love this option)
Co-taught alongside your classroom teachers
Or run independently by your teachers, using our easy-to-follow lesson plans
4. MUSICAL PREPARATION WORKSHOP
Got a school musical on the way? This 50-minute workshop gives your cast — leads and ensemble alike — the practical drama skills to walk into rehearsal ready. Built around our four foundations of performance (Focus, Imagination, Instrument, Connection), students develop vocal projection, expression, characterisation and ensemble stagecraft, tailored to your production and your characters. Perfect for Stage 2/3 classes gearing up for opening night, and fully aligned with the NSW Creative Arts Drama syllabus.
"Need help to get your students confident and capable on stage? This is the workshop for you! Voice projection, acting with emotion, staying in character and using all instruments at your disposal are some of the aspects explored in just one hour! Recommended!"
— David Harding, Teacher, Marrickville Public School
