Performances and Events
We provide adults, families and young people with opportunities to perform across the year. We do this either by putting on our own sharing performances or linking in with other local Middlesbrough and Tees Valley based events.
Performance opportunities are a great way of building confidence and self-efficacy. They also help in developing transferable skills such as preparation, time management, hard work and collaboration.
What’s coming up?
All performances and events take place at Middlesbrough Town Hall unless stated otherwise.
