The Roundhouse Poetry Collective is a year-long programme for emerging poets to create and experiment with their writing, develop their performance, learn about the industry and join a supportive community in the heart of London’s spoken word scene.
Although you don’t require professional experience, we are looking for poets looking to commit to advancing their skills in writing, performing or seeking a creative career. Whether you’ve been attending writing classes for a while or are a frequent open mic performer, we would love to hear from you.
Kids Week is back for 2026, offering families the chance to see top West End shows with free tickets for children throughout the summer holidays. During Kids Week, one child aged 17 and under can go free with every full-paying adult ticket, with additional children able to attend at a reduced rate.
The annual initiative gives young people and families the opportunity to experience live theatre across a wide range of productions including musicals, plays and family shows in London’s West End.
Participating productions in previous years have included long-running musicals, new plays and award-winning family favourites, alongside workshops and theatre activities designed specifically for younger audiences.

MOUVE by Dancing with Louise
A free, four-day intensive theatre-making experience designed for actors, writers, and directors who are ready to push their creative boundaries.
Over four days you'll build a brand new piece of theatre, take part in workshops hosted by external practitioners, and develop your personal toolkit.
Guided by Burnt Orange Theatre's core team, you'll be placed into small interdisciplinary teams including a writer, director and up to 5 actors, taking ownership of the creative process. You will explore different styles and techniques, generate material and refine your work through rehearsal, development and collaboration.
This is a fast-paced, high-energy experience, offering professional development, creative risk-taking, and an exciting opportunity to meet and collaborate with like-minded artists. They operate a deposit system, where participants are asked to pay a small deposit to secure their space. This is refunded on completion of the course. However if this cost would be a barrier, please let them know and they will waive the fee no questions asked.
Participants must be aged between 16-23, and must be able to commit to the full 4 days of the course, taking place from 26 - 29 May from 10am - 4pm at the Bush Theatre
