Vamos Theatre at Smestow Academy!

We are proud to be working with Vamos Theatre this afternoon here at Smestow! Vamos Theatre is the UK's leading full mask theatre company, taking its funny and fearless brand of wordless theatre across the length and breadth of the country and beyond since 2006.

Vamos Theatre’s trademark style marries full mask with strong visual design and an original soundtrack. The company make accessible, humorous, human, and fearless work which is based on real life stories, and their productions are rooted strongly in social research.

Not only are a group of our Key Stage 3 pupils participating in a workshop with a member of the Vamos cast this afternoon, we are also going to watch the company perform at the Arena Theatre in Wolverhampton this evening! This afternoon's activities will be a true example of all our teaching principles - sharing new ideas and concepts, reviewing what we already know, chunking new content, checking for our understanding of how this then applies to our professional practice!
