Save the dates for 19th September, 17th October, 14th November, and 17th December from 9:30am - 11:30am. (Please note that our December session will be a Christmas Go and See trip). We aim to support deaf children and young people (ages 5-12) to enhance their creative skills, their confidence and form new friendships in an inclusive and encouraging environment. In partnership with leading deaf arts organisation Turtléar, we explore the realm of theatre through storytelling, acting, creative writing, a lot of fun drama games and much more! Together, we’ll produce original productions to proudly share to the community along with friends and family. Our workshops are facilitated by Creative Associate and founder of Turtléar, EJ Raymond. EJ is profoundly deaf and a BSL user with a BA in Performance from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. They are also an actor and writer who’s passion inspire many young creatives to venture into film making, performing and more!
