Service description: | The Twisting Ducks Theatre Company make entertaining, accessible and informative drama about issues that are important to people with learning difficulties and raise awareness about challenged they face and their rights.
They offer the ‘Theatre Academy’, where adults with learning disabilities can work as part of a team to develop new theatre performances; develop acting skills and perform across the North East and learn about stagecraft, lighting and sound.

Both academies run for 42 weeks a year, starting in January, costing £39 per day 10am-4pm at Westgate Community College in Newcastle.
