School and Community Offerings:

We have educational offerings for schools in Grand Cayman who wish to supplement their course content with interactive workshops. These are offered to Drama and English departments, and can be tailored to the class context and texts being studied. In the past this has included Shakespeare workshops with Triple C School on Julius Caesar and Romeo and Juliet, cyberbullying workshops with Cayman Prep and High School, workshops with Cliffton Hunter High School including acting as a practice exam invigilator for drama exam performances, Macbeth workshops with Grace Christian Academy and many in-house workshops. We have also worked with some of the English classes on performing the plays they are studying so enhance their understanding of the text.

In addition, we run theatre tours and have previously hosted John Gray High School, the home school groups, Cayman Prep and High School, Cliffton Hunter High School, nursery groups and more...

Our community offerings have included an open theatre day for anyone to come and learn about the theatre and take a backstage tour, workshops for the young mother's group at the Family Resource Centre, our Fairytale Shorts programme where we create short performances for youths and kids go free! 

If there is something you would like to see the Playhouse offer, in terms of education, email us a training@cds.ky to make a suggestion!
