Queen’s Hall Arts Centre in Hexham is running its Down Stage Youth Theatre for ages eight to 11. 

The sessions are designed to offer a space for children to develop their confidence and creativity through drama.

Sessions take place every Monday, with the next dates running on Monday, March 16, and Monday, March 23.

Organisers say participants will learn how to bring stories to life through theatre games and exercises.

At the end of the spring term, they will perform their own piece in the venue’s 50-seat studio.

The group is part of the Queen’s Hall Youth Theatre programme and is led by theatre practitioners Tom Marton and Addison Keen.

The group costs from £66 per term, but free taster sessions are available depending on availability.

To find out more, parents can contact the box office by emailing boxoffice@queenshall.co.uk or calling 01434 652477.

Queen’s Hall Arts is located on Beaumont Street, Hexham.
