The cracked slipper company
whats on in 2026
Its only a few weeks now until the summer term ends, but fret not! The Cracked Slipper Company will be hosting a weekly summer workshop over the holidays, kicking off on Tuesday 21st July from 10am-2pm at The Kindle Centre, and every Tuesday thereafter.
Under the title of The Masked Actor, we will be inviting young people between the ages of 10-16 years old to join us in creating a new performance. With Jess Edwards on board as a leader, as well as myself, we will be using Jess' skills as an artist to create masks and headpieces of our very own, using these to develop characters that will represent emotions and giving these emotions a voice through character study and storytelling.
Please do share this offer with any other parents or young people whom you think may be interested. As ever, these workshops are totally FREE, and you do not have to be a current member of the Cracked Slipper Company to attend.

The Masked Actor
Wye Voices is a podcast that we made earlier this year with our 10-16 year old group, with funding from the Herefordshire Community Foundation.
The aim of the podcast was to explore stories about the Wye, through visiting some of the local archives offices and interviewing some Hereford citizens across multiple generations. The result being to give our young people some insight into how significant the river is in the evolution of the city, and to hopefully be inspired to join the appeal to save the river from its current state.
We did overcome a few challenges, what with it being so early on in the year. However, the project was participant lead and everyone involved had equal input in the final product.
It is rather epic, but we hope you enjoy!
