activities "I enjoyed the circus skills, it was a good laugh & everyone was really friendly."
Theatre Modo can deliver workshops in a wide range of skills and activities. Workshops can last anything from 45 minutes for a taster session for a primary school group to a full day leading to a performance at the end.
Each workshop willl be tailored to the needs, ages, and abilities of the group. Theatre Modo has worked with participants from 5-85 and of all abilities and backgrounds.
The examples pages gives an idea of some workshops that we have delivered in the past.
Below are some activities that Theatre Modo can deliver.
Circus skills
Circus skills have become increasingly popular as a healthy fun activity with built in achievements. Circus develops concentration, perseverence, coordination and teamwork through a series of enjoyable activities.
Taster workshops include: ball juggling, scarf juggling, plates spinning and peacock feather balancing.
Longer workshops or more advanced groups may also include: stilt walking, human pyramids, even fire performance.
Theatre
Theatre workshops wil focus on a particular area. This could be a set text in school, an issue that the group is exploring, gathering ideas round a particular theme.
Alternatively the workshops can focus on acting skills or a specific area of acting, eg. Character, Improvisation, Story telling, Physical theatre
Drama Games
For groups wanting to gain more of the social or personal development benefits from the activity, the workshops can be focussed more on these areas, leading participants through a series of exercises and games developing trust, confidence, communication.
Clowning
By celebrating difference, by recognizing failure as a human attribute, and by showing the mistakes we all make as something full of laughter and compassion, clowning can take the stigma away from being different. It can free individuals from the fear of their own inadequacies, give courage in tackling new situations and bring a genuine sense of well-being and laughter to even the most difficult of circumstances.
