Budding stars of the stage and screen can get some hands on experience with new drama workshops in Haverhill.

The weekly workshops at the Haverhill Arts Centre, which are run in association with the Theatre Royal in St Edmunds, are aimed at children aged between eight and 11 and aim to increase the confidence and stage presence of those taking part.

The fun sessions will be led by professional theatre practitioners who will develop the drama skills of those involved and teach the importance and value of team work in the profession.

The first term of workshops will begin on January 14 at 4.30pm, running until March 25.

Price per term is £57.50 but an introductory offer of £45 per term is currently running.
