growing young voices

& creative futures

INK creates opportunities for young people to discover theatre, develop their creativity and find their voice. From school projects and workshops to holiday courses and performance opportunities, our youth programmes encourage children and young people to get involved, build confidence and experience the creative process for themselves.

Holiday Theatre Courses

INK offers creative holiday courses for young people aged 8–16, with courses tailored to different age groups. Young people aged 8–11 and 12–16 are encouraged to develop their creativity, build confidence and work together to create original performances for the festival.

In partnership with Halesworth Museum and Halesworth Library, local primary pupils aged 6–11 take part in a creative writing project, with their work displayed during the INK Festival.

INKlings

Our INKlings workshops (ages 6–8), run with MissAdventures Theatre Company, introduce younger children to theatre through fun, confidence-building activities.
