OUR COLCHESTER PROJECT
Our Black Dog Theatre Creation Colchester is now entering its eleventh year and we couldn't be anymore excited. Our group is open to adults suffering from poor confidence, self-esteem or mental health issues or those who simply love exploring performance skills. We are now also welcoming family, friends or anyone who cares and supports those affected by mental health issues to join us to. We are a very friendly, supportive group who simply use performance skills to have fun and build our confidence.
