Creative Learning
The Creative Learning team undertakes a wide range of community-based projects, engaging with schools and groups to explore different themes through art and theatre.
Express Yourself
The Grand Opera House believes that creativity should be open to everyone. That's why the Creative Learning team's work extends beyond school-aged children, working with people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities.
From large scale productions like the annual Summer Youth Production to one-off workshops, community projects and events, the Theatre aims to use a diverse range of art-forms to inspire, engage and grow the curious minds of children and adults across the community.
