Holiday courses almost full!

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

Roll up, roll up ! The holidays are here…and who better to put the bug in bugtastic than Theatrebugs!

Our courses have already got off to a flying start! Check out the skies above the Contact Centre in Clapham this week and you’ll see the children flying around being  bumblebees, fairies and superheroes; they are all coming to help Squeaker the Mouse find the perfect present for the princess!

Last week the “Princess Rainbow’s Birthday” workshop in Balham and one mum said this:

“My two children have been doing Perform for a year and I can honestly say that they have got more out of three mornings with Theatrebugs than a year with Perform!”

Thanks Noah’s mum!

So….where are we next week?

Putney, Kingston and Chelsea..that’s where! So, if your little one wants to join the fun then give us a bell…..places are going like hot cakes! Yum, yum!

See you there!

It’s showtime!

Well, just when we thought that every single child aged 3.5years to 8 years in Balham was attending our holiday workshops; we get a call from a mum telling us that there were some children in Balham who were missing out.We couldn’t believe it-a summer without Theatrebugs? That’s like Christmas without Santa, isn’t it?

We just couldn’t stand it and so with a little help from a group of local mums we pulled out all the stops to get a bugtastic 3 day express fix of the Theatrebugs magic to the remaining children.Phew! So they are now singing, dancing and acting their socks off down there! We can’t wait to see their show on Wednesday!

But don’t forget – our other show “The Cupcake Fairy!” is mid tour around London and the Home Counties as we speak and getting some rave reviews too! We’ll tell you more about that next week!

Enjoy the sunshine bug fans!

The Brownies take over the stage!

Tuesday, July 6th, 2010

The Bugs and the Brownies teamed up last Sunday in London Bridge to perform at The Scoop Outdoor Theatre!

One hundred local Brownies aged 7-10 took part in the  the challenge to learn a new skill in a day…and boy did they succeed!

Our theme was “Let’s celebrate!”  and so with a few helpful tips from the Theatrebugs Leaders the girls took to performing like ducks to water- and why wouldn’t they…with all that rain!

A few raindrops didn’t get in their way and by the end of the day the performance truly was “A Celebration!”


“The event went really well thanks – the Theatrebugs group did especially well in the performance as it rained really hard during their piece but they weren’t phased by this at all and carried on regardless!
Thank you for your help with our event.”
