The school holidays are nowhere near complete. Your children have already upset the house in unusual ways; the cushions are never on the sofa, the snack drawer is always empty, and the music of Danny Go (insert more age-appropriate artist here if your kids are older) blares constantly out of your once-pristine living room. You wish there was somewhere you could send your child, just for two hours, to get out of your hair.

GOOD NEWS! We're running our Improv For Kids Workshop again at this year's Maidstone Improv Festival on Saturday 19th September! (Yes it's miles after the holidays, but at this point you just need hope, something to latch onto). Send your child to us to burn off energy whilst learning the basics of improv comedy! Put their natural creativity to good use! Tickets available here: https://www.parkwoodtheatres.co.uk/hazlitt-theatre/whats-on/maidstone-improv-festival---kids-improv-workshop

For obvious reasons, we don't have any photos of last year's kids workshop, so here is an artists rendition of some of the children having fun while improvising. If you want your kids to also have fun improvising, check out our kids workshop at 10am on Saturday 19th September, tickets at https://www.parkwoodtheatres.co.uk/hazlitt-theatre/whats-on/maidstone-improv-festival---kids-improv-workshop
