For Schools

Curtain-Up!

If you are a school that is unable to visit Polka Theatre for financial or other difficulties, you can apply to our Curtain Up! scheme. You could receive:

  • Free tickets (for up to a whole year group)
  • Free programme for every child
  • Free Q & A session with the actors or director of the show
  • £100 towards your transport costs (on receipt of proof of payment).

PLUS…

Every class that attends a Curtain Up! performance is entitled to a free hour-long drama workshop.

  • The workshop(s) will be held at your school after your visit to Polka.
  • Each workshop lasts one hour.
  • We can fit in with your school day, so please state the time you want us to start and finish each workshop.
  • Please ensure that there are no more than 30 children in one group.
  • Please ensure that a member of staff is present during the workshop
  • We need a large space, free of chairs and tables for the workshop.
    (A hall or gym is ideal, but please ensure that the group is not interrupted.)
