EDUCATION

Theatre has power to move, to connect and to communicate. However there are entire communities who believe theatre isn’t for them.

We want to galvanise and cultivate new diverse audiences. And the best place to start is with the next generation. We love working with:

Students in School and Further / Higher Education
British South East Asians
British Muslims from diverse cultural backgrounds

Drama workshops and student insight sessions

Could your drama students benefit from contact with theatre professionals? We partner with schools, Further and Higher Education colleges to deliver tailored drama workshops on site.

Student ages

Our sessions are suitable for:

Key Stage 4
Key Stage 5
Further Education
Higher Education

Audition coaching for drama students

Change has to start at the roots and we’re keen to cast the net wide. By showing how theatre is a viable career, we can encourage a new generation of professionals. This is why Ellandar Productions offer sessions focused on theatre as a career.

Productions

We take our productions on tour across the UK and internationally.
