Professional Theatre
It is very important for Sixth Sense that people understand our priority is to create great theatre, and then to tour that great theatre to young people and children. Our performances take place in schools, youth and arts venues in order to reach a wide ranging audience.
Where we perform should not change the work of our production teams in creating quality art. We are happy to consider any appropriate space to present theatre to young people, children and their families.

Schools
Sixth Sense has a strong history of working in schools. We employ a specialist post to help schools maximise the use of one of our performances with an extensive range of advisory level activities. These usually come in the form of a support DVD Rom which includes many hours of recommended workshops and lessons.
We work with primary, secondary, SEN, pupil referral units, youth justice organisations and mentoring groups to ensure our work is accessible. We work in a range of ways- residencies, plays in a day, INSET sessions, and R&D sessions with young people.
We currently work in the following counties: Wiltshire, Hampshire, Gloucestershire, Oxon, Bristol & Bath.
