HOLIDAY ACTIVITIES“Playbox is brilliant!
It’s easily the best thing I do”
Playbox member, age 14
Holiday workshops take place at The Dream Factory in Warwick, ranging from half-day, to weeklong specialist projects. These are open to both members, and non-members, of Playbox Theatre.
Our holiday workshops are a perfect way for young people to be creatively engaged during the school holidays, and to develop skills across a range of performing arts.
