Engagement and skill development

We are passionate about sharing our skills and empowering other artists and theatre makers of all ages to play with and explore the potential of circus theatre and storytelling.  But we also know first hand how powerful arts learning can be for so many corners of our communities and are able to design bespoke experiences.  If you are interested in a learning experience or just to find out what we can do, get in touch for a chat.

Teachers and schools

We can offer workshops for schools and teachers that focus on using aspects of circus arts to create new ways of telling stories and making theatre.  From circus skills to character building, devising and script adaptations, we can offer workshops for all ages across the 5 key stages.  

 

Our team comprises of experienced teachers and lecturers, who make the best uses of active learning to engage everyone.  We are especially experienced at developing bespoke workshops to support teacher development and to support your students to create original work for exam specifications.  Get in touch with our producer for a chat about how we can support you. 

Workshops

We have an open-door approach to our work, inviting spectators into our rehearsals and seeking out opportunities to share our skills, practice and process with other artists, students and practitioners.  

 

We welcome invitations to offer workshops and other engagement experiences.  Please get in touch to see how we can help you with your workshop needs.

Community learning

At Kook Ensemble we have all seen first-hand how engaging in the arts can transform an individual or a community.  From a community event focussing on a local topic to low stakes get togethers for groups looking to make new connections or develop new life skills.  

If you would like to explore how we may support a Community Learning project or idea, get in touch for a chat.

Mentoring and coaching

We firmly believe that within our industry we should all look out for each other as best we can.  Between us we have helped many artists, creatives and other professionals with DYOP, company set-ups, creative and technical delivery and idea creation. 

 

We can offer a mentoring or coaching package or emerging and developing theatre makers looking to develop their career.  Get in touch if you would like to explore options available to you and your aspirations.
