PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR ARTISTS
We provide training to young artists and performers, supporting their career development and providing employment opportunities. To mention a few young artists who we have helped to train: Chantal Daly (Fidget Feet Aerial Company), Jennifer Patterson in Scotland, Veronica Forioso in Turin and Beatrice Perini.
We are happy to develop tailor-made professional development programmes for artists on request and aerial consultancy for theatre/dance companies.
SKILLS TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT SUPPORT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
We provide specialist skills training in physical theatre, aerial and stilts dance for young people to help them progress into further education/training or employment in the creative industries and arts sector.
TEACHERS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
We have extensive experience of creating and delivering professional development programmes for teachers - helping the teachers to embed learning and creativity in their teaching practice. In particular we can help teachers to explore physical theatre, storytelling and aerial techniques as a tool for teaching and learning – showing them how to make the learning more exciting and relevant through the use and integration of drama across the school curriculum.
It is the professional development work with the teachers that has been of the greatest importance. The staff at the school have learned from Scarabeus’ approach, and it has unleashed the creativity in teachers who needed this kind of catalyst to let them realise their own potential. It has shown how to reinvigorate and re-motivate them, and excite them about taking risks and trying new approaches
