Peut-Être Theatre is an award-winning dance theatre company that creates ambitious, accessible, multi-disciplinary performances and digital projects for children.

Through our commitment to artistic excellence, our engagement activities with families, schools and communities, and our expansive touring reach to hospitals and theatres, we aim to provide exciting and innovative, live and digital cultural experiences for young people

We put children at the heart of the process by working with them from the research stage through to the final performances.

Peut-Être Theatre is looking to expand our pool of workshop facilitators and so is offering a paid training day to new facilitators who may go on to join our freelance team. Our facilitators deliver movement workshops in schools, hospitals and community settings to KS1 and lower KS2 children. Workshops are movement-based, and we are open to different forms of movement that facilitators may bring to the space. Facilitators don’t need to be formally trained dance performers.

Over the course of the training day, Peut-Être Theatre will introduce the company and our practices. Our goal is to see how well we can work together and hopefully add you to our workshop facilitator team. This will allow you to deliver workshops for children in various settings on behalf of Peut-Être Theatre. We will offer future work on a freelance basis.

Following training, when you do go on to deliver workshops with Peut-Être Theatre, an enhanced Disclosure will be required.
