What Awaits Your Child – Wicked Performance Workshop
Get ready to discover your voice, build confidence, and shine on stage in our Wicked-inspired performance workshop, created in the magical and powerful world of Wicked — inspired by the beloved West End/Broadway stage show as well as the Wicked films.
This engaging, high-energy day will be filled with musical theatre performance, expressive choreography, confidence-boosting drama games, and storytelling through movement and song — all delivered in a warm, child-friendly, and inclusive environment.
There’s no need to have seen the show or the films. The workshop explores the much-loved songs, characters, and themes of Wicked, drawing inspiration from both the stage production and the films to explore ideas of friendship, identity, bravery, and believing in yourself.
