Everyone has a story to tell. Here at Thunk-It, we believe in working to make sure everyone from all walks of life has the opportunity to be heard. Thunk-It Theatre connects communities and individuals by getting creative and having a good ol’ natter!
...​
SEE:
That’s our professional and accessible theatre. From lively family shows to performances designed to welcome audiences of all ages and backgrounds - we love creating work that’s joyful, inclusive, and really sparks people’s imaginations. It’s theatre that’s not just for theatre-goers, it’s for everyone. Something to SEE that's friendly, fun, and full of heart.
MAKE:
Where we get hands-on! These are our creative workshops, crafting moments, and community projects. Whether it’s collaborative crafting, drama explorations, or special themed workshops, we love working alongside people of all ages to MAKE something wonderful together.
DO:
This is where we stand up, get creative, and put on a show. Our youth theatre sessions are all about drama, performance, and confidence-building. They’re long-term projects where young people really grow - not just as performers, but as themselves. It’s energetic. It’s collaborative. It’s celebratory. And it’s about doing theatre together!
