Descendants show-in-a-week (7 - 12yrs)
Esher Theatre
Step into the world of Auradon and the Isle of the Lost for a fun-filled musical theatre week inspired by Descendants. Children will spend the week singing, dancing and acting as they work towards a fully staged mini-show — but instead of a live parent performance at the end of the week, their …morefinal piece will be professionally filmed by a real film crew. This won’t be a static camera at the back of the room. The children will get the exciting experience of performing on set, with multiple cameras, microphones and a proper production-style set-up to help them feel like they’re part of a movie musical. Across the week, they’ll learn choreography, practise scenes, develop bold characters and work together as a cast to create a show in just one week. Expect catchy songs, high-energy routines, dramatic moments and plenty of confidence-building fun. This workshop is perfect for children who love performing, whether they are already confident on stage or just beginning to find their voice. It’s also ideal for working parents who can’t always make a daytime final performance, but still want their child to experience the excitement of creating and sharing a show. A brilliant screen-free holiday activity for creative children who love music, drama, performing and making new friends — with a professionally filmed keepsake to enjoy afterwards. less
