Our Circus and Theatre workshops give participants the chance to try out circus skills in a fun, safe and relaxed environment. They benefit young and old alike by developing co-ordination and balance skills, and raising self esteem and confidence.

Our Circus workshops range from 90 minute tasters to week long residencies or ongoing weekly sessions. See workshop options.

Swamp also runs circus theatre-in-education workshops for participants of all abilities. We believe that performing arts are an effective tool for engaging participants in the curriculum, as well as offering personal benefits such as increased motor skills and raised self esteem.
