“It was really fun because I made new friends and it was a safe place to share ideas.”
East End Story Makers is a creative group for children and young people that uses drama, music, movement, creative writing and food to create and share stories together.
The group was formed in September 2021 and is open to children and young people aged between 5 and 14 years old.
We run weekly sessions after-school on Wednesdays during term-time at Byker Primary School, NE6 2AT.
Our junior group (5 - 8 years old) meets at 4pm-4.50pm on Wednesdays.
Our senior group (9 - 14 years old) meets at 5pm-5.45pm on Wednesdays.
Workshops are aimed at children and young people who live in Byker, Walker and Walkergate.
Please contact info@unfoldingtheatre.co.uk for more information.
“My daughter absolutely loves the East End Story Makers. Her confidence has massively grown since joining the group. She has made new friends of all ages from different schools and the staff are all so brilliant. ”
