Summer School
We are running our summer school over three weeks from 3rd August
through to 21st August. The three weeks will concentrate on the
themes Past, Present and Future creating three short plays performed
at the end of each week.
We're all looking forward to it as, like the last eight years, it's
going to be great fun.
Participants can apply for just one week, two weeks, or the whole
three weeks.
This years venue will be the scout hut on Borough Road and there is
a limited number of free places for siblings.

The Mr Park shows will be running from June 15th - 26th. Mr Park
takes groups around Birkenhead Park meeting all sorts of characters
from the Parks history along the way.

Birkenhead Market The Musical!
Through the Gift and Talented programme with Wirral LEA we are
running a series of workshops to create a working script looking at
the history and everything else surrounding Birkenhead Market. The
group have been working for the last five weeks and look at
presenting a demonstration performance during the last couple of
weeks of the school year.

years. The play focuses on issues surrounding HIV and Aids as well
