About the Workshop
Musical Theatre Workshop (MTW) is an intensive workshop for young learners that aims to introduce and develop the triple threat skills required of professional musical theatre performers. Children will use the songs from Matilda the Musical to train themselves with dance, singing and acting skills. We end with an open class on the last day to share with parents.
