This exciting workshop, led by the dynamic duo of Lee from Rubbish Shakespeare Company and Dear Old Uncle Bob Bob from The Silly History Boys, invites children to become legendary myth-makers!
Combining clowning, storytelling, and physicality, Make a Rubbish Myth provides a unique opportunity for participants to learn how to build their own myths and legends from scratch. Through playful activities, children will discover how to craft heroic deeds, dastardly villains, epic journeys, and frightful monsters, bringing their fantastical stories to life. In a world of rehashed sequels and stale franchises, this wraparound experience aims to foster a love of new and original stories, empowering children’s creativity and artistic potential.
This workshop is designed for children to enjoy independently. Parents and carers, feel free to relax in our lovely cafés or explore our galleries while the kids get creative.
