The Oakengates Theatre@The Place played host to two spectacular evenings of drama, showcasing a wonderful collection of short performances performed by local young people, emerging new acting talent and professional drama companies.
The very first Telford Drama festival proved to be an important addition to the cultural calender as well as an excellent opportunity for local young people to develop their drama skills and share their talent with the wider community in a theatre setting. Actor and storyteller Andy Hawkins supported all participating schools in the festival by running drama workshops to aid with performance skills and techniques. The festival culminated in an exciting and energetic evening, showcasing the best of young people from across Telford and Wrekin alongside professional drama companies and practitioners.
