| Plested and Brown are a professional
theatre company who devise, write and perform comedy. Their ideas
come from improvisation and script writing which through rehearsals,
are developed and explored. |
| Plested and Brown are offering a range
of workshops, which aim to tackle a range of issues and skills,
which frequently come up for Drama students and Teachers. In addition
to these workshops and working closely with teachers, Plested and
Brown can devise bespoke workshops to deal with specific issues.
After each workshop, pupils will receive back up notes to remind
them of what they have done. |
| Ideally we like to run 3 hour workshops. If this
were not possible within your school timetable, we would adapt the
workshop to your needs and time scale. We need a large empty room/hall
with a few chairs, a couple of tables and a CD player. We will bring
music, props hats, paper and pens, masks etc. |
