Get in Touch

“The team at Polka Theatre worked exceptionally hard to create completely bespoke performances tailored to the unique themes explored by each year group. They collaborated closely with every class to understand their interests, supporting the children in writing scripts, poetry, and songs, as well as choreographing movement for their pieces. [The practitioner] went above and beyond to ensure that the final performances were truly phenomenal — a joy to share with our families.”

Teacher, Liberty Woodland School, July 25 

Clubs and classes

Drama has been proven to improve communication, confidence, self-expression and teamworking skills in children, and including it as a subject in your school’s curriculum is a perfect way to ensure access to the arts for all your students. Polka Practitioners can visit your school regularly to work with any and all age groups, teaching core performance skills and developing creativity in your students.

Sessions are available either in lesson time or as an after-school extra-curricular. Contact lizzie@polkatheatre.com to book.

School Plays

Create lasting memories for both children and parents with a Polka School Play. Our experienced practitioners can work with your class to devise, write, stage and rehearse an original play based on a topic or story of your choosing.

Contact lizzie@polkatheatre.com to discuss your ideas!

Interventions

Are you looking to develop social skills, teamwork, communication, confidence, literacy or oracy with a class or group of students? Through one of our extended projects, Polka Practitioners can work closely with your students to develop key skills holistically through drama, storytelling and creativity. 

Contact lizzie@polkatheatre.com for more information.
