Drama Workshop
Want to be part of a new and exciting venture at Oldbury Rep? Then come along Tuesday 18th November at 7:45pm and join in our drama workshop.
During the evening we hope to develop existing acting skills and introduce new ones. Some of the activities will be geared towards preparing for forthcoming productions.
Above all we want it to be a fun evening for both new and existing members - no previous experience is required! Anyone aged 18 or over is welcome.
We intend to make this a monthly event so keep an eye on the notice-board and/or ORP website for any further details and dates
If you have any questions about the workshop, then please talk to one of us, we'll be happy to help.
