Education
Saturday Workshops: Terms 2, 3 and 4 2025
Learn how to Sing! Dance! Act! and Perform on Stage!
Kids will learn acting styles and leadership skills with NCT’s team of trained acting, voice and movement teachers. They’ll learn how to speak with confidence to make themselves heard, and take these skills into performance—dancing, singing, acting and moving—and at school. Kids will practice their very own song, speech or monologue with NCT’s trained professionals, who lead all our workshops. Call now to register your kids; they’ll will love our Saturday workshops!

Community Theatre
NCT takes our productions on tour to peri-urban and rural areas, where schools often don’t have halls or large classrooms to present plays, so we present in community centres, and give extra performances to local communities. Schools and communities value this especially when the productions are a for a set-work and are of current social value.
When: Call NCT to ask us to perform in your community
Venue: Schools
Ages: Children 10 and up
Cost: TBD for school packages
