National Theatre of Scotland LEARN

National Theatre of Scotland Learn is about opening up great theatre experiences to as many people as possible across Scotland.

Since the launch of the National Theatre of Scotland in February 2006, Learn have created educational and outreach theatre projects involving over 50,000 participants & audience members. We have delivered over 2000 workshops and a programme of work in 25 Scottish areas, working alongside over 80 schools.

Learning is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that you can’t be creative without learning and that you can’t learn without being creative.

We aim to inspire and empower so that anyone who wants to can help make exciting and vibrant theatre to be shared with audiences across the country. This way we can help create a confident, outward-looking and distinctively Scottish theatre voice.
