Perfect for School Trips

Many UK schools choose to combine a West End theatre trip with a practical workshop to deepen students’ understanding of performance and theatre-making.

Our sessions can be scheduled before or after your theatre visit and are delivered in central London rehearsal studios such as Pineapple Dance Studios, Danceworks and BASE Studios.

This allows students to experience the same professional environments used by West End performers.

  • In your school hall or drama studio
  • In professional rehearsal studios in central London
  • As part of a theatre trip itinerary
  • As enrichment for performing arts students

We cannot thank West End Workshop enough for bringing the magic of Wicked directly to our doorstep! Having Amy Webb come to work with our 30 children was an absolute privilege. Coordinating travel to London for a group of this size is a massive task, so having a professional of Amy’s caliber travel to us was a total game-changer. ​The children had smiles on their faces all day, but more importantly, they walked away with professional techniques they can actually use in our future productions and beyond...The Q&A session with Amy was an incredible highlight, giving the children a rare and inspiring insight into the industry. Brilliant work and we can't wait to have them back for a different show experience!
