What Is threefold?

Threefold is a creative group made by and for young people.

We meet weekly in term term and support young people to collaborate and realise their ideas. We create performances, and explore acting, music movement and making throughout the year.

We also run theatre trips and experiences and some weekend sessions in the lead up to performances.

You can find more about each group on the pages below. All are welcome to come and try a session for free

About company 1 / About Company 2 / About company 3

WHEN and where ARE SESSIONS ?

We meet weekly during term time at the Easton Community Centre. The regularity means we can build the group rapport, develop skills and confidence and also work towards performances. We will hold your place for as long as you want to be involved and when you leave or move up to the next company we will offer it to another young person.

Company 1 for Years 3 & 4 - Wednesday 4-5 pm

Company 2 for years 5,6 & 7 - Wednesday 5.15- 6.30 pm

Company 3 for years 8 - 12 - Friday 5-7pm

If your child can’t make a session, please let us know before the session via our WhatsApp number or text message 07470224522.

Will they have to perform?

Not if they don’t want to. We’re not about churning out singing, dancing and acting kids. We recognise all the incredible roles, skills and qualities needed in creative projects. We will always encourage our young people to be brave and challenge themselves in many areas of performance making.

In in Company 1 we create performances that are shared with family and friends in the familiarity of our Community Centre. In Company 2 &3 we perform both in our home setting and further a field including larger professional venues such as the Bristol Old Vic & Bristol Pride dance stage.

Do I need to drop off and pick up my young person?

Company 1 young people will need to be dropped off and collected by an adult. We will check them out with their adult as the session finishes.

We partner with local school Bannerman Road and collect young people from Company 1 up from school on a Wednesday. Please let us know if you would like to find out more about this wrap round.

In Company 2 and 3 young people can make their own way to and from sessions. If your young person doesn’t arrive we’ll give you a call so do let us know in advance in they are late or not able to attend.

If you prefer to pick up and drop off please do. There is communal work space and play space and a cafe in the building.

How much does it cost?

A regular place is £40 a month. This is subsidised to keep this in line with local swimming lesson prices. Included in this are the additional theatre trips, experiences or workshops.

If your young person receives PP pupil premium / FSM free school meals we can offer them a place for free.

How can I join ?

Fill in our join form and we will invite you along at the start of a new term to give the group a try for a free taster session. We have a wait list for some of our groups and will be in contact when a place becomes available.
