As a professional touring theatre company we have rigorous standards for our work. We believe that children deserve the very best of theatre, they are our toughest critics. Some of our productions are aimed specifically at younger audiences, most recently Jungle Book. Others are more suited to an older audience - perhaps language or drama students. We take care in making our theatre as inclusive as possible, even if the play is in French we want the whole audience to understand what is happening.

We are keen to use the guidelines for achievement within the National Curriculum for the years and key stages of children we work with. We are guided by the National Curriculum Framework and Ofsted's guidance on the development of education within schools past age 16 and above.

A trip to the theatre or a visit to the school from a touring theatre company introduces pupils to a range of theatre arts, different genres and various cultural traditions. Experiencing professional performances helps to foster understanding of how different forms of theatre are made and how their creative potential can be used.
