This February half-term, there’s no shortage of exciting activities for kids across Redbridge – from theatrical performances to hands-on workshops and outdoor adventures, whether you’re a young creative, performer or adventurer, there’s something for everyone!
Take to the stage at Redbridge Drama Centre
Redbridge Drama centre is hosting must-see shows this February half-term, perfect for the whole family. Get ready for a roar-some adventure and jump back in time with the Dinosaur Time warp, (showing on Monday 17 February), or if you fancy something a little more classic why not join two sisters as they embark on a magical adventure with Snow White and Rose Red (showing on Saturday 21 February).
If you’re someone who loves to get creative and wants to take to the big stage there are still spaces left for our Holiday Workshops at Redbridge Drama Centre. Sing, dance, and perform your way through the worlds of Moana, The Little Mermaid, and Finding Nemo. Students will enjoy a musical journey culminating in a performance full of fun and laughter.
