When the reverend’s rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren’s reputation, with many of the locals eager to believe the worst about the new kid.

Making Tomorrow’s Theatre
Silent Approach Masterclass
Separate Doors and Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch are partnering to offer a Masterclass and workshops for anyone interested in learning about how to create an accessible rehearsal space. Using non-verbal techniques, the Silent Approach has been developed to allow work with professional learning-disabled, neurodivergent and non-disabled performers to take place on an equitable basis.
The Masterclass and workshops are free, but you do need to book your space, and we kindly ask that you cancel your ticket if you can no longer make it.
What will I learn?
• How to direct and rehearse text-based theatre without relying on words and scripts.
• An accessible way to work with actors who process and use language differently.
• How to set up, run and manage a rehearsal room in a way that works well for neurodivergent and learning-disabled talent.
• How to see the rehearsal room and standard process through a new perspective and find new ways to work with different kinds of people.
Who is it for?
Theatre professionals, theatre professionals in training, youth theatre leaders, workshop facilitators, actors and anyone interested in how to create an accessible rehearsal space. The afternoon sessions are open to anyone who enjoys singing and dancing, professionally or for fun.
