• Activities in school

  

  20Twenty Productions is committed to helping schools deliver high quality cultural and arts based education. We oursleves deliver a wide and varied range of activities in both primary and secondary schools during school hours and as after-school activities. Take a look inside here to get a better idea, there's information for pupils, teachers and parents. We are always open to new ideas on how to support and engage children and young people in school.

• Outside school

  

  Glee clubs, youth theatres, STEM activities, theatre festivals, theatre trips, young promomoters and youth advisory boards. There are just so many activities that we design and deliver, very often on a partnership basis with other like-minded organisations, that you will just have to click here and explore further to find out more.

• Community ambassadors

  

  Our Community Ambassador Programme, often known as the 'CAP' supports and inspires young people to get involved in volunteering and social action within their community. The programme launched in April 2019 and, to date, 40 young people have already achieved over 2000 volunteering hours. This is an amazing achievement and a positive reflection of their willingness to help others. Volunteering is a valuable opportunity for any young person that helps to develop essential skills and add valuable experience to a CV or person statement to support a University application.

• Youth Voice

  

  Youth advisory boards, affectionately know as 'YABs' are bodies of young people and professionals that meet on a bi-monthly basis. The aim of a YAB is to play a strategic role in identifying and addressing issues that impact upon young people. Whilst the YABs were only recently launched - September 2019 - we are very excited to see what impact results.

• Theatre

  

  Theatre groups, the annual Connections Festival, Glee Club, and seasonal workshops are just some of the theatre related activities that run regularly during the year. Our youth theatres operate every school week and our workshops are most typically found during the Easter and summer school holidays. If you love dancing to great songs then the Glee Club is perfect for you. The cost is just £2.50 with the activity suitable for those aged 10 - 19. Click here to find out much more.

• Music

  

  We are excited to now have Tom Harlock on board as our Music development Manager. This is primarily thanks to funding from Youth Music. Tom, as an experienced teacher and musician, is now looking to develop a range of musical activities for schools and the wider community. Indeed one of the first - Rock Academy - will be running during the up and coming October half term. Click here to find out more details.

• Film making

  

  As well as having a long standing tradition of delivering young theatre activies 20Twenty Productions has also produced many short films as a part of a wider school project. We also have experience - and the amazing memories - of producing larger films such as the fabulous 'Home from home' project (funded by Heritage Lottery) and more recently an educational film for the YMCA. Both of these films were packed with children and young people gaining some amazing experiences both in front of and behind the camera.

• STEM

  

  Science, technology, engineering and mathematics. These for many children, particularly in a primary school setting, often appear to be daunting topics containing complex thinking, calculations and formulas. Whilst this becomes more so as children progress through their academic life, we at 20Twenty Productions believe that at a young age these subjects should be experienced rather than directly taught. Our projects are designed to give children immediate hands-on opportunities to build and code robots, play with circuit boards or get creative with design software.

• Heritage

  

  Heritage activities have and continue to feature heavily within our cultural offering. Indeed many of our organistion's most treasured memories coome from a hugely enjoyable heritage project called Home from home'. Funded by the Heritage Lottery in 2016, this research project culminated in a half-length feature film which portrayed the story of a number of children evacuated from London during 'Operation Pied Piper'. Indeed so successful and enjoyable was this project that a sequel is already in discussion. Watch this space!

• Radio

  

  20 Twenty radio is one of our most recent ventures, and whilst still finding its feet we are delighted to have regular listeners who click on our stream in Facebook. Keep coming back to see how this project unfolds.

• Events

  

  We particularly enjoy supporting young people that want to stage their own events and will gladly support the delivery of events for young people that raise money for a cause, raise awareness of an issue or simply give other children and young people a chance participate in something new. Please click here to find out about some of the events that are on the horizon.

• Building a creative future

  

  We work with many different artists and arts organisations and endeavour where possible to support young people to gain knowledge and experience of the wider creative industries. We have offered apprenticeships since we began and a couple of our previous apprentices have gone onto achieve degrees in Event Management. Jess recently completed her level 3 and continues to work with us as a sessional musician on our Get Creative and Rock Academy projects whilst also running her own Glee Club in association with 20Twenty Productions.

• March Town Hall

  

  Our home, March Town Hall, was constructed in 1900 for March Urban District Council on the site of the Old Market House and Fire Brigade building. The Tower is one hundred feet high and has five floors. The Clock was subscribed for by the inhabitants of March 'as a Memorial of the completion of the 60th year of the Reign of Her Majesty Queen Victoria 1837 – 1897'. 20Twenty Productions is proud to be the managing agents for the Skoulding Suite which is a professional function room and performance space on the first floor.

• The Geri Crooke Trust

  

  On the 17th June 2019 a treasured team member and deep friend died in a car accident. Geri was such an important part of the 20Twenty family and she will never be forgotten. This trust is designed not only to keep all of our memories of Geri alive and vivid, but also to help more disadvantaged children and young people access what was, or is, Geri’s passion. The theatre.
