Norwich Theatre in Norwich, Norfolk, has released its list of family events and creative workshops for the upcoming Easter holiday period in 2026. The programme, which was published on February 20, 2026, includes interactive sessions for children of all ages to help them build confidence and learn about performing arts.
A workshop called Play in a Day is set for April 1, 2026, where children between the ages of 7 and 15 can focus on theatre-making. Other events are already proving popular, with the Inside the Chocolate Factory storytelling session on April 8, 2026, reaching full capacity shortly after tickets went on sale.
On April 9, 2026, the venue will host Sensory Stories for SEND, a specialised event designed for children with special educational needs and disabilities. Later in the month, actor Joe Tracini will perform his show Ten Things I Hate About Me at the Norwich Playhouse on April 20 and April 21, 2026.
The announcement comes as Norwich Theatre seeks planning permission to update the Norwich Playhouse building. The proposed plans include adding a new first floor and making the site more energy-efficient to improve the space for the local community.
