SCHOOL HOLIDAY PROGRAMS.
Our Brisbane School Holiday Drama Programs
Play on Stage offers fun and creatively-engaging school holiday programs for children and teenagers across Brisbane and South East Queensland. With our tailor-made programs facilitated by our experienced team, participants get to spend part of their school holidays taking to the stage, spending time with friends, and letting their imaginations run wild!
We plan a range of school holiday programs to cater for various age groups and to remain flexible within families’ wider vacation plans. From special skill-building multi-day programs where participants have the choice of how many and which days they wish to attend (one, two, or all of them!), to three-or-four day programs that result in a spectacular performance outcome, our curriculum is designed to give our young participants the choice of how they wish to express their artistry during their school holidays!
Who our Drama School Holiday Programs Are For.
We offer school holiday programs for early primary and upper primary students, as well as special masterclasses for teens. As with everything at Play on Stage, our Brisbane-based school holiday programs are crafted to provide a safe and inclusive space for every member of the community and designed to provide our participants with skills that work both on the stage and in their everyday lives.
Whether the child or teen wants to expand their performance toolkit, develop a play’s script, explore some musical skills, or even try out directing, we have a school holiday program for them. Be sure to regularly check this page for up-to-date information on our upcoming school holiday programs so you don’t miss out!
