01.05.2022 On the day of Saint Valentine, we thought we’d share one of our favourite sonnets by Shakespeare #valentinesday #shakespeare #love #sonnets

16.04.2022 Did you know that our artistic director Heidi is a lecturer @apacbrisbane for its subjects ‘STAGE: Rehearse and perform a contemporary stage role’ and ‘Career Planning: Producing Independent Theatre. Partnering with Anywhere Festival’. How lucky are these gorgeous students to have Heidi as their mentor? You can find out more about the tertiary courses APAC offers by visiting their website.

15.03.2022 "We conducted interviews with past Corrugated Iron young people, right back to founding members. They revealed a common thread about how their [youth theatre] experience allowed them to share their own perspectives and experiment with their own ideas, often for the first time". At Room to Play, we're very passionate about youth arts, as reflected through our youth drama studio Room to Play Kids. We couldn't agree more with this article and it's stance on the power of drama in activating youth voices and their perspectives on the world around us. We still have some spaces left at our Kids Drama Studio, which returns this week at Rosalie Baptist Church. You can register your child now via our website www.roomtoplay.com.au

14.01.2022 We're ready to bust this myth we hear all too often... "You have to be an extrovert to get into acting." Fact: Most of our students ARE introverted, but our classes often lead to an amazing change in communication, and courage to speak up & get creative. ... Through high school especially, there's plenty of times when these skills are super handy - which is exactly why we opened Teen Workshops after school in Term 3 https://www.roomtoplay.com.au/registration/

14.01.2022 Meet the oh' so vibrant Virag! We love having Virag as our Youth Development officer and fab facilitator because one could say she's got a real knack for bringing out the creative 'juices' of the young minds that enter Room to Play 'Imagine' is her all-time favourite drama game, which is when students personify a random object around the studio and create monologues for them; pretty funky hey? ... Leave your Q's for Virag below and she'll be sure to answer... https://www.roomtoplay.com.au/

14.12.2021 Today our Teen School Holiday Program Students had their performance of ‘Expectations’; a work of political theatre that that the students devised themselves with the assistance of our facilitators. In this show, the students explored their own perspectives and voices on expectations in their lives: expectations of themselves, expectations of their age, school expectations, societal expectations and family expectations. It is a very impressive piece of art, and something we wish that we had the chance to create when we were at that age. We could not be prouder of our gorgeous cohort of young adults
