youth workshops

An innovative, simple and creative theatre workshop program for young people aged 6-12 yrs. You don't need fancy props and costumes, or even an outgoing personality. All you need is a sense of fun, a love of adventure and a willingness to work with others. Come and be part of an exciting new theatre workshop that celebrates the fun of play and making art using who we are, what we already have and a big dose of imagination!

what will we do?

You will develop skills in: voice; movement and improvisation; writing; devising performances both solo and with others. The workshops also cover storytelling, building a character and working with text.

Your confidence and creativity will grow - but most importantly, you will explore a path of creativity that is fun and fulfilling!

how do workshops run?

Workshops are kept small so everyone can enjoy full participation.

Participants are encouraged to re-enrol for further workshop series if they wish, to enjoy developing their skills & making more theatre!

Each workshop season culminates with a group ‘showing’, bringing together the skills and experiences learnt.

what parents, children & others are saying...

"The theatre workshop was fantastic! My son looked forward to it every week, and made us promise to let him do it again next year."

"My daughter enjoyed every session. Niki has a gift for creating a space where kids feel free to be their most creative selves."

"My 9 year old has attended three theatre Workshops and is looking forward to a weeklong camp in the summer. She loved all of them. I love that Niki uses the children's imagination to drive the activity instead of relying on a scripted play. The children feel a real sense of ownership and pride in what they do, since it is being created by them!"

"My daughter had a wonderful time doing the theatre workshop! She would come home and have us do improv with her. So fun! So creative!"

"You get to be active and creative. It's fun and I always look forward to it. You explore your imagination and do cool exercises."

"Niki Tulk makes learning feel like living! She brings joyful surprise and innovation with every instruction. Behind varied and engaging activities lies a philosophy that play is vital practice for what it means to be fully human. She brings years of experience in classrooms varying from the very young to adults; in contexts from Australia and the U.S. and from working with the very privileged to the very poor. Her experience, charisma, and knowledge fill learners with new ideas and excitement about teaching and learning. Niki Tulk's dramatic and charismatic teachings are a unique compliment to approaching multicultural and multilingual classrooms around the world."
