Upstaged Workshop at the Malthouse Theatre this September

Upstaged Workshop invites all young performers to experience the world of professional theatre making for the upcoming holiday workshop. The artists behind Upstaged are working in the professional arts community to create ideas for the performing arts audience. The skills covered range from physical theatre, dance, drama, voice, circus, mime and music. In the past our performers have explored Shakespeare, Monty Python, Commedia dell’Arte, Broadway, Mime, Vaudeville and Contemporary Circus.

Contact us for details regarding the upcoming workshop and the artists involved.

Upstaged Workshops are a 4 and 5 day holiday programs for performers from the ages of 7 to 17 years every school holiday break. Our teachers are industry leaders with experience in projects as: Adelaide Fringe Festival, Billy Elliot, Cirque du Soleil, The Producers, Priscilla: The Musical, We Will Rock You, So You Think You Can Dance and many others. Of course no prior experience is required.

With Upstaged we can give our youth a growing but safe way to learn an artform as members of a team. Fill their minds and hours with theatre and music and keep them off the tv, mobile and ipod. Let them really live!


As the course is geared to introduce the elements of performance, there is a showing for parents and friends on the final day. Candid photographs (as seen below) and dvds are available. Upstaged is for any young performer looking for a window into the world of movement, expression and performance.
