The MASK PERFORMANCE, uses a selection of masks to show the contrasting styles of Tragedy and Comedy as performed in the ancient theatres of Greece and Rome. Scenes of two classic tales introduce the audience to the Gods, Heroes and Monsters of myth and legend.

                     "The Goatman dances wildly"                              "Return of the King"

                                 "Lampito ...... forever young"                      "The brave Psudatipus"

After learning some of the secrets of mask theatre, members of the audience can try on masks and costumes themselves, and take on the guise of a great comedian or tragic hero!

A comedy 'master class'

The Mask Making Workshops offer a choice of 5 stylised theatre masks for the children to make and use or display. Simple step by step instructions will give children of varying abilities the confidence and know-how to produce work they will all be proud of, and will want to use in their own dramatic enactments!

Each workshop is suitable for up to 35 children.
