Can you create a play in a week? Join professional theatre‑makers for a lively, creative summer school where you’ll develop performance and technical theatre skills, make new friends and have plenty of fun in the process.
Team up with The Fabularium for a week of bold, brilliant outdoor theatre-making. You’ll learn to create magical stories using music, puppets, costume, and movement, all inspired by traditional folk tales and the world around you.
The company specialises in producing outdoor performances that are reminiscent of the troubadour style, ranging from midscale vibrant cart shows to energetic walkabout animations that are fun for family audiences of all ages.
Make new friends, craft characters, and perform your own original outdoor show for family and friends, all in one week.
There is no pressure to perform, just come and be creative!

Get ready for a week of boundless energy and creative genius!
