Make a Play in a Day, National Theatre

So many of the greatest actors and actresses start young, from Eddie Redmayne to Emma Watson. And even if your children don't have theatrical genes, learning to perform, thinking creatively and bringing a production to fruition is an energy burning way to keep kids entertained this summer, 2015 at the National Theatre.

Children as young as five can test themselves creatively at this day-long children's theatre workshop. Everything from writing a script to designing a piece of costume, computing the music and bringing the production all together for a performance at the end of the day, to which accompanying parents are invited to watch. All children must be accompanied by an adult. Each adult may only be responsible for up to 3 children.

Suitable for aged 5+.
