A event held at The Trinity Centre on Wednesday 29th March. The event starts at 19:00.
For adults whose inner child needs some love
Get silly, move your body, connect with others, laugh your head off and de-stress. These sessions promote positive mental and physical health using theatre games, movement, clown games and mindfulness exercises.
Guided in a friendly, no pressure environment by theatre practitioner Hester Welch, co-Artistic Director of Spilt Ink Theatre
Who is this for?
You might be an expert play-er in need of some inspiration (i.e. a performer), or perhaps your body is aching for some silliness after a long day at a desk. Or maybe you haven’t played since you were 6 and are now taking your first steps in your ‘serious person’ recovery journey... Any experience is welcome. Come as you are and let’s play.
What do I bring?
The sessions involve movement and group games. Wear something you can move in and bring a water bottle. Take it at your own pace. Resting when needed is encouraged.
£15 per session
OR
£24 per session for you and a friend

About Spilt Ink Theatre
Spilt Ink Theatre is a company formed by three female theatre-makers who met in Paris whilst training at Lecoq and Gaulier. We use play, physical theatre, puppetry and clown to create accessible theatre that inspires and moves a wide range of audiences; from young to old, where English may not be a first language and to those who might be new to participating in theatre. Our core intention is to make playful and visual work that is engaging and relevant, inspired by the voices of local people and our own identities as artists.
