Making Theatre Gaining Skills aims to improve people’s life chances through theatre production and skills training. We offer free and exciting classes for everyone – explore new interests, learn practical skills, and connect with others in a supportive and inclusive environment, regardless of your background or experience.
Don’t consider yourself someone used to theatre or the arts? No problem — while our courses are based around theatre production, the main focus is on developing transferable skills like confidence, communication, creativity and teamwork, and you won’t be expected to act or perform.

We offer an extensive range of free courses to adult leaners covering a variety of different subjects such as: set design, prop making, puppetry, animation, lighting, sound effects and more.

- Free taster sessions and workshops designed to spark an interest in creative careers.
- Traineeships, volunteering, work experience and accredited qualifications.
