For over four decades, Bristol Old Vic Theatre School has been bringing the wonder of live theatre directly into primary schools across the region. This autumn, we’re thrilled to continue this tradition with two brand-new productions from writer and director Liz Felton (The Story Cellar) that promise to captivate young audiences.

Written & directed by Liz Felton

Robin feels different from his classmates – they’re loud and rebellious, while he prefers to spend time in his own world. One day Robin discovers a portal to a magical place called Winterland, which looks an awful lot like his drawings! Soon Robin is embarking on an epic musical adventure, encountering fairytale baddies and learning the power of bravery and difference.

Tour Dates: Friday 21 Nov – Thursday 4 Dec 2025

Plus! Free workshops: Limited availability for schools looking to add on a free drama workshop on the same day as the performance.

It was always stressed that the contacts you make during your training are incredibly important, and your classmates are likely to end up being on set alongside you in the future. After working with a director of photography on one of the School’s short films, I was invited to work on a project with him outside of Bristol - proving that the professionals we meet via the School, may one day give us a call to action!
