Our workshops are not classrooms. They are spaces of exploration, play, and possibility. Designed especially for women, these sessions invite you to take your first steps into performance — or to return with fresh eyes and renewed inspiration.

We run two levels of workshops: one for complete beginners, and one for women who already have performance experience and want to build on the journey they are creating. Both are playful and welcoming. Each session is different — sometimes we play theatre games, sometimes we explore fragments of scripts, sometimes we create from props, movement, or memory.

​

At the heart of it all are supportive, women-centred spaces where you can build confidence, discover inspiration, share creativity, and deepen your understanding of theatre and performance.

 

Our workshops are led by Willow, an experienced theatre facilitator who has been guiding women into performance for many years. She builds gentle, empowering structures where there is no right or wrong — only the chance to explore, to experiment, and to find your voice. You do not need any experience to take part. You can dip in, try it out, and be part of something exciting and supportive.

These workshops can be a first step towards performance opportunities within The Scratch Theatre, or simply a chance to play, connect, and grow in a non-judgmental space. Whatever you choose, the journey is yours — and you are warmly welcome.

All our workshops are currently free.
