In August we collaborated with local theatre company Dens and Signals to provide a free week-long summer project for 11-14 year olds.

Sixteen local children came together to develop their skills in theatre, art, music, storytelling, and design, and there was a role for everyone. At the end of the week the performance they’d devised, written and designed was performed to friends and family.

“Once Upon a Murder” was inspired by the museum’s collection of dolls houses.
