Our children and young people receive an unrivalled opportunity to learn and perform within a professional theatre.

SCHOOL MEMBERSHIP MONEY CAN'T BUY EXPERIENCES & SUPPORT
A school partnership with the theatre can enrich the lives of your students, at every level of development. In 2019 the Gatehouse loaned hundreds of costumes and props, helped children with stage fright, voice projection and direction, we allowed many schools a backstage insight into a professional working theatre, as they discovered lighting effects, hilarious sound effects and even the trap door! We can bring story bear to your early years departments and you can bring your key stage four students to the set of our open air Shakespeare production. However we can help, we would love to and through our partnership with the University of Wolverhampton we can really make a difference. Please email jemma.harrison@freedom-leisure.co.uk for more information. *Membership carries a small fee of £100, this is used to cover expenses such as costume cleaning and travel.
