Creating Tales

Sunday, 11th July 2010
Secombe Theatre, Sutton

Come and join us in the enchanted forest where tales are spun and magic created!

Hosted by SAVVY Theatre Company and in partnership with Sutton Mencap, this very special performance event brings together a number of learning disabled drama groups from across Sutton, Croydon and the surrounding boroughs.

 

The SAVVY Young Company will be supporting this unique event with their production of A Midsummer Nights Dream.

Theatre Trips

SAVVY Young Company members also have the opportunity to go on many theatre trips either locally or up to London. During the summer term 2010 they will be seeing A Midsummer Nights Dream at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.

Past West End shows have included:
STOMP
The History Boys
The 39 Steps
Billy Elliot
On many of these trips the group has also had the opportunity to meet with the cast after the performance.

Aside from any help needed with professional auditions or requirements for college/university placements, SAVVY members have the opportunity to take LAMDA examinations. These are now a recognised accreditation and involve performing in front of an independent examiner at the Academy in London.

SAVVY is also a registered ARTS AWARD Centre and many young company members are currently completing their Bronze & Silver levels.
