A happy place for kids and parents!
Family café and toddler workshops during mornings, BSO during afternoons and unique birthday parties on weekends.

a creative space? a playground?

an event spot? A BSO?

It’s all of this in one!

Two amazing separate spaces:

Amsterdam Kids Drama & Dance

Genevieve Haywood — Wed, 19 Apr 2023 10:18:22 +0000

We offer playful, creative and imaginative classes for children aged from 2 to 10 years old. Kids learn theatre and dance skills, develop confidence and have great fun!

For the youngest children our parent and child classes are a unique combination of dance, mime, songs, costumes and objects, which we use to explore a different theme each week.

For school age children our classes focus on developing basic theatre and movement skills and working together as a group. For the oldest kids this leads toward an informal performance at the end of the course, to which parents and friends are invited.

All classes are taught in English and are a great way to practice for those growing up with English as an additional language. We also regularly give drama workshops at various International Schools in the Netherlands.

InterActing: Improvisational theater course for teenagers with autism

Genevieve Haywood — Thu, 12 Jan 2023 15:48:44 +0000

Improvisation theater course for young people with autism from
March 12 to July 2; every Sunday on stage.

Improvisational theater is a form of theater in which no script is used. Nevertheless, it is based on a number of strategies that are very applicable for increasing the social flexibility of young people with autism. From being able to quickly build on each other’s ideas, to responding to the acted emotions of the other, improvisation skills are just as applicable in everyday life.

InterActing lets young people with autism experience how to break free from their routines and rituals through improvisational theater in order to face the ever-changing world with confidence.

Visit the Interacting.amsterdam website for more information.
Or call Saskia Maas directly on 06-53671652.
