This is the story of a drama school in Dublin, the Cobblestones Theatre School, which must close its doors due to lack of funding. In Ireland, miracles still exist, and in this case an almost sympathetic Minister of Culture and Education arrives, which may offer a great subvention to the school if he is pleased with it. The school principal, along with her talented teachers, will do everything within her limited resources to persuade the minister to leave the school open.

Our plays have been specially created for pupils learning English as a foreign language. The actors speak clearly and the plays are written to include a lot of repetition to make it easy for students to understand what is happening.

For each show we create a few small roles for students to perform. There are also other moments of interaction during the play that the whole audience can take part in. Language level isn’t a block for students to participate.

Each workshop is an exploration led by native English-speaking actors and fuelled by the dynamics of the group: exploration is encouraged, the language barrier is broken and everything becomes a reason to play and to improvise. Pure fun!

YES, ENGLISH CAN BE FUN!
