Summer Sessions

A young girl with light skin, wearing pink glasses and a light pink t-shirt, sits in a theatre with blue seats. She is looking up with an excited expression, her mouth open and her hand raised in a gesture. Behind her, a young boy with curly hair and darker skin sits in a similar blue seat, rubbing one of his eyes with his finger. The background is slightly blurred, showing additional rows of blue theatre seats.

Looking for things to do in Huddersfield this summer? Taking place during the half term holidays, these exciting sessions offer a rare chance for young people to explore how to create theatre magic working with the professionals who lead our youth theatre.

Our Summer Sessions are one-day drama workshops for young people aged 6–16, packed with summer fun and hands-on creative experiences.

What to expect

Participants will work together through the day to create their own piece of theatre which they will share with family and friends at the end of the day.

Who Summer Sessions are for

Both welcoming and inclusive, Summer Sessions are ideal for children of all levels – whether they’re new to drama or already a budding star. It’s a brilliant way to make new friends, learn fun theatre facts, and enjoy a memorable day of summer fun in a relaxed and supportive environment.

A perfect way for young people to try acting in Kirklees this summer in Huddersfield.

Happening around our theatre from 9am - 3.15pm. Young people are required to bring a packed lunch.

  • Three handmade puppets displayed on a wooden table against a plain background. Two larger puppets wear colourful fabric costumes — one in bright pink with blonde yarn hair, the other in blue striped fabric with white hair — while a smaller clown-like puppet in pink stands between them. The puppets are made from cardboard, fabric and craft materials, with wooden sticks attached for movement.

  • A group of children perform energetically on stage with their arms raised during a theatre workshop or performance.
