It embraces storytelling in all its forms – from spoken word to movement, dance, mime, and even a variety of languages and cultures.
Built around our ensemble ethos, the qualification supports learners to express themselves, share ideas creatively and develop confidence, without the requirement for every member of the group to speak.
