WHAT’S ON
*** Given the current circumstances, we've moved courses online and are taking the time to plan future activities carefully while remaining positive! Hopefully see you again very soon ! ***
We need your help!
The pandemic has hit us all hard in every industry at all levels, it took us completely by surprise and we've all had to adapt and survive in a short space of time.
At TSA, we've been experimenting with the best ways to keep going while maintaining our ethos to promote language learning through the arts and keep producing theatre at a distance, to keep educating and entertaining.
We now need YOU to be part of this process, whether you can attend one of our FREE shows, get in touch to find out how you can help, spread the word on social media about us or donate a few ££ to support us.
We would be forever grateful for any help we can get from the community in order to better give back in the future.
LA TROUPE - ONLINE
Since the beginning of the lockdown, our troupes in French and in English have been working hard online to keep rehearsals going and their spirits up! It's been a real challenge for both actors and directors to adapt to that completely new way of working and develop a brand new show for the end of term.
We are so proud now to finally be able to invite you to the premiere of LA TROUPE - ONLINE
on Friday 19th June (French) and Saturday 20th June (English) from 7.30pm for a unique live performance on ZOOM.
Both performances will be FREE to attend online in the comfort of your own home and a donation page will be in place in case you want to "buy one of the actors a pint" to congratulate them and help us continue our work.
DONATE HERE VIA PAYPAL
The donations will go directly towards the elaboration of next term's courses and showcases and hopefully allowing us to throw a get together in the Autumn to welcome back and thank everyone (you included!).
If you'd like to attend either (or both) FREE performances,
please notify your interest here to receive the ZOOM link on the day.
A French wee box for the holidays...
Pour les vacances, un pack d'activites en Francais !
Pour les vacances, un pack d'activites en Francais !
This is a prototype box and content may vary slightly.
Theatre Sans Accents has created a French activity pack combined with online live ZOOM workshops to invite children to speak French, create stories and characters as well as some art-making.
Although, it won't be just like it would have been during the face to face camp, it's the closest in terms of content that we can deliver safely in the current circumstances. Addressed to P2-7, children will receive a hand-delivered (in Edinburgh) French box containing: a DIY beret kit, props to dress up, tongue-twisters, arts& crafts materials, French sweets, pate a sel and more.
The content of the box will be used during themed online workshops (afternoons 2-3.30pm with a 10 minutes break) to explore French language and culture in a playful and practical manner (i.e making a storytelling dice to invent stories collectively, dress up as a French person, make some delicious French dish in pate a sel, make your own puppet and mini shoebox theatre etc). There will be direct interactions between Marion (the workshop leader) and the group of children (10 max/session), they will be sent on mini-missions around their home, while learning a thing or two about France.
Fully immersive, the box and the workshops will be the perfect tool to escape to France over the holidays and include the whole family in the process.
The box and the 5 online workshops will cost only £75/child and the first week of workshops will take place week commencing 27th July (with delivery of the box the week before).
More dates to be added. You're not available that week? No worries, you can still purchase the box and a link to pre-recorded videos will be available for you to watch so that your child can still benefit from the making.
