Monday Night Drama is a performance workshop for those age 8-16 yrs. The group meet at Platform and sessions are designed to develop skills and confidence through games, workshops and regular performance opportunities.
Led by professional artists, the workshops provide the opportunity to learn, get creative and make new friends. All are welcome and no experience is necessary.
Monday Night Drama is split into two groups within the session - one is open to all young people aged 8 - 11 years (led by Geraldine Heaney) and the other open to 12 - 16 years.
Please email tickets@platform-online.co.uk if you have any questions or would like more details.
Some of the group shared what they liked about Monday Night Drama:
Shree: “I've made more friends because of it”
Harper: "It's fun'"
Gwen: “It helps me socialise”
Isla: '"Makes me more of a drama queen"
Morgan: “Feel like I can express myself more”
Millie: '"It boosts my confidence"
Olivia: '"I like coming to drama because I feel more confident now. I have since joined two groups at school where I need to speak in front of people with a mic and I don't feel scared of that anymore - I can do it."

Class leader Geraldine, who leads the 8-11yr old group said: “At Monday Night Drama we play games, swap stories, imagine new ideas, make shows, write songs, learn dances, create props, design costumes and learn to work together.
Monday Night has always been drama night for me. When I was a child I went to a youth theatre on a Monday Night and I've been working with the group at Platform for a really long time. I love collaborating with the young people. We're all learning from each other and trying to have the most fun possible!".
