26 years and still going strong
The city's most loved, most creative and long standing theatre company for children is back this Autumn!!
A Summer of theatre making
Young people will have opportunity to take part in highly engaging theatre making this August. Whether you are 7 - 12yrs or a teenager, there will be a fin packed course for you - where you can create and perform a musical 'Play in a Week' (or 2 weeks!)
When The World Came To Chester
Performers from California, Cape Town, Manila, Zimbabwe and China joined forces with school choirs, choirs and musicians from Chester in an international music week. This included the Number 1 young musician of the world.
This was achieved through a partnership between Theatre in the Quarter and Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod.
Stand and Deliver!
If you are anywhere near Chester Railway station at the beginning of July - then you may be forgiven for thinking there is an ambush taking place nearby. Our teenage theatre makers bring the stories of Cheshire's Highwaymen (and women) to life in a dynamic new play with music at The Carriage Shed.
The play kept me awake thinking about it long after I went to bed.
