On Monday, our Stepping Out participants came together to share some of the songs they have been working on in sessions and celebrate how much they have enjoyed the project. Stepping Out is a new project at the Theatre for older people at risk of loneliness and isolation.
I don't get out much but coming here and meeting people - it's a laugh. I enjoy being with people... It isn't something that I thought I'd be doing on a Monday morning but I've loved it.Stepping Out Participants
Participants come together on a Monday morning for a two-hour musical theatre workshop with two specialist practitioners. Alongside singing and gentle choreography, sessions include warm up games, yoga and breathwork. There’s always time for a cup of tea and a catch up, too!
Great fun - if you make a mistake you just carry on and have a laugh!Stepping Out Participant

We are very grateful to Wakefield Council for supporting Stepping Out through the Connecting Culture grants.
We can't wait to continue Stepping Out with this fantastic group of budding performers!
