Creative Writing: 9-13yrs. Spring 2027

Have you ever wondered how to write a play?

This exciting and unique course offers the opportunity to explore creative writing in an inspiring environment. Led by industry professionals, participants will take part in dynamic workshops that bring stories, history, and creativity to life. 

The 10-week course includes exclusive curatorial access to the American Museum & Gardens, providing a rare opportunity to engage directly with fascinating collections and uncover the stories behind them.

Throughout the term, you will create an original play inspired by the museum and its exhibits. The course culminates in an end of term celebratory sharing of the work developed during the programme, with the chance to submit your play to the Royal Court Theatre’s Young Playwrights Awards!

Sessions take place in the beautiful Coach House and Stables at the American Museum & Gardens, offering a unique and inspiring setting for creativity, collaboration, and discovery.
