Toolbox Drama is thrilled to be offering a series of new events into our 2023/24 calendar, offering participants and their families access to sensory and immersive experiences.

We will be offering four events over twelve months, each event will have an exciting and compelling theme attached. All of our events will be taking place at The National Centre For Early Music which is a centre of excellence for music-making in the City of York.
