Our Summer Schools are designed for young people who are passionate about the performing arts, dance, drama, music and singing. They will be part of a professional theatrical company, working to a rigorous schedule in order to achieve a production of the highest artistic standard.

During the week long course the young people will be involved in all aspects of creating a production, culminating in a final show of epic proportions. The young performers will work with professional actors, directors, musicians and choreographers from Round Midnight Ltd.

Week 1 7-11 YEAR OLDS

2 - 6 August 2010

The sleepy village of Merrywood is awoken one early summer morning to the “Yarrgghh” of the rowdy pirates, who have dropped anchor in the village

pond!

 

The villagers are most distressed because in a weeks time the judges from the “Britain Is Smashing” competition will be arriving in Merrywood.

 

Can Merrywood retain its title of the loveliest village in England? Only if the villagers can persuade the pirates to swap marauding for flower arranging,

looting for cake decoration and splicin’ the mainbrace for cricket on the village green. Will Captain Gingerbeard ruin Merrywood's chances in the

competition or can the pirates teach the villagers a thing or two about enjoying themselves?

 

You'll have to act sing and 'yarrgghh' as if your life depends on it!!
