Fabulous lighting
workshop that taught the students more in three hours than many learn in two
years of A level studies. The model theatre enabled them to have a very genuine
"hands on" experience, and also gave a valuable insight into the
workings of larger venues.
Thank you so
much.
Kate Armes Head of drama ROEDEAN
Dear John,
Thank you again for an excellent morning - informative and well-pitched. My
pupils appreciated its practical and "hands-on" approach and I
already have two Theatre Studies pupils considering doing the technical options
for their coursework - something they would not have dared to do before this
workshop.
Hope we can do a repeat show next year at about the same time!
